[micktoon]

Hi Bob the top slide is looking spot on lad. As for hammers ............you can never have too many I say 

 Needless to say hope all goes well tomorrow and you dont have to wait about too much, then get out and back in the shop quickly.
  Cheers Mick

Great to see you back and working so fast! The square nuts are a good find, makes "T" bolts easy! Altogether a first rate job!
