Apron on your BOXFORD looks identical to my LOGAN that I have apart doing restoration presently. I like your project and really like the riser you have put on your knee mill. tom

I turned down the heads of the cap heads to be a tight fit in the counter bore
They work like a "fitted bolt"

Tool on center height gave me a good scribe line for the rear finger

John,
Coming a long nicely - it looks nice and rigid

RE: Boxford traveling steady - Micktoon - 10-16-2012
Nice one John , its coming along canny
, it makes you wonder why Boxford did not do it this way as its a better job yet more simple than the one thay created 
, I think you should have worked on the Boxford design team myself. 
Cheers Mick
P.S Cheers about the photos Dave lol , I just pointed the camera on auto to be honest
