Having spent 2 more days trying to tram and better understand the geometry of the machine I think I have an acceptable result. I measured the table in both x and y in relation the the spindle on the full travel of both axis and measured no deviation. That was a big surprise for me. I tried to tram this thing for many hours and could just not get it done. Finally got it less than .001" in both x over 11" and y over 9". I gave up at that point. I re-machined my Al brick again and as you can see it has cut pattern in both directions. You can see the cross pattern is not consistent but it is there. I cannot slip a .0015 feeler gauge between a 123 block and the surface and I can see no light between them. The thickness as best I can measure varies ~.0005". I do not know what to expect so this will have to do for now. My patience for this task is gone.
Thank all of you so much for your input and patience. I learn so much from you all.
