in the "for what it's worth" department...just did some calculations and i am not going to get lucky with the gear train as far as it not needing any modifications...not even close...seems the new measurement from the head stock center to the center of the lead screw is 15", give or take...and of course that changes a bit as the bed height is adjusted...the original measurement was approximately 11"...so it seems i need to lengthen the carriage 4"+/-...but only the section from the idler pin to the lead screw bushing...nothing is changing from the idler pin to the head stock...seems i need to chop up that second gear carriage...bit nervous about doing that,since that is no longer an available part... but at this point have nothing to lose...god hates a coward, as the saying goes!...joe
