...using a 6" (x) and 4" (y) HF digital caliper. Started with the x axis this evening. The stainless part of the slider is nice and soft, easy to cut and drill:
The scale part (on the other hand) is hard and so needs to be cut with an abrasive wheel rather than a saw:
So far all I've got is a block to mate the slider to the table :
I'll need to drill & tap a hole in the table to mount this. The other end will be clamped in an aluminum gizmo that will mount in the existing holes on the end of the table.
