Simple Carriage Stop
#5
Looking good Wong.

I would make a couple of suggestions though on the design. You may want to consider centering the stop rod and threading it rather than rely on the set screw and use a jam nut to lock the rod in place. Centering it would also make room for two locking screws (closer to the ends where the clamping happens) so there is no chance of anything moving when it gets bumped by the carriage. Moving hard stops tend to ruin your day.
