Mick,
I've never heard of a ram getting tight on a Bridgeport, you must be the lucky one. I use mine all the time so it never has a chance to take a set.
That must have taken a bit of time to open the hole up that much. Your set-up is a prime example of creating machining!
Do you have an application for the slotting head? Most of them seem to just hang around taking up space.
