So I found this sort of rig on YouTube, and Gabe it a try. I’m making a lot of assumptions here in considering these numbers. I don’t have a tenths indicator because I dropped and broke it. Anyways I’m assuming the bed is as level as possible, and the thousandths indicator would be sufficient. After all, this bed is trashed right? I was thinking I’d get .008-.015 readings. Well assuming again that my setups are rigid, the worst wear I could find was .004” drop from the headstock area, and about 12” forward of that. This isn’t the whole bed ways area, but just the visible wear from the saddle. Parallelism I’m having trouble quantifying...like say from back of rear way to front of front way. But that doesn’t seem insurmountable. Once again, I don’t know what I’m talking about, so that statement is probably not useful.
