That is what I thought about the "sizing" of the guides! I was originally thinking that I may have bought the wrong size, but it sounds like a routine process to fit the new guides.

And no, he did not say that I phrased that myself! He is an extremely meticulous and crafty machinist, I would say the best in the St. Louis area.

I simply wanted your input regarding the size because I do not want to pay him big money to have to lathe the guides if it was not necessary thats all.

Thanks to you both for the input.
