If you've done the mod to strengthen the compound mount, I have a couple questions:
- Is there any reason not to make the length long enough to be flush in front and almost reach the oil ports on the cross slide on back?

- Is or would it be helpful to drill a hole for the cross slide backlash cap screw? Or, would you always just take mount off the adjust when necessary?

I really enjoyed the helpful posts about this. Would appreciate any other tips on this.

Thanks,
Regis
 
Regis,

I made mine more or less square using the two original holes plus four new ones on the corners.


I used 5/8" steel plate. I also tapped six additional holes at the rear of the cross slide to permit an auxillary mount to the rear. I had to move the center oil port forward.

There is plenty of rigidity with this mount. I also added three additional holes to the dial mount.

I am on vacation now and don't have access to the design but can post it when I am back later this week
