Just answered your message, if it works, you should be fine. They are pretty durable. Not 100%, but they arent as fragile as one might think.
By chance you got any pics of said device?Re: Tramming the head. I have your machine's little brother, the PM25. I made two blocks that screwed to the head and had screws that pushed on the column mount. They would lock the head in position, and allow tweaking the tramming. I checked it the other day when I had the vice off, it was out .003 in 18 inches. tweaking with the screws got it down to less that the width of the needle on 0 both ends.
Granted, if I were to want to tip the head I'd have to remove one of these, but I don't plan to do that. I have a sine plate for tipped work.
