hey curtis!...regarding the gear train, right now i am leaning towards lengthening it...it seems easy enough...i only had to buy a small bearing for the one 2 1/2" gear...the other one already has the bearing...otherwise, i have everything i need...if i did do a chain set up, i would still have to lengthen the carriage...a lot will be determined once i get the head stock back onto the machine and i can play with some gear combinations...might even make the carriage pieces out of wood to do the mock ups before i cut up the gear trains...i have already designed a bracket that would stabilize the bottom of the gear train...i'm thinking if it is lengthened, it will be swinging in the wind, so to speak...the bracket would be easily removable, if necessary...i think your right regarding the slots in the tail stock...and certainly widening it did not help...i'll be looking closer at that tomorrow...thanks for the input...more to follow...joe
