I will check at Tolley Electric in Clarksburg the next time I go there, 
which ATM looks like Friday as I've a medical appointment at the new 
hospital just north of there.

I hope not, as I do find them very educational.

I did a test fit of the SS pipe but it can't clear the crossfeeds gib 
adjusting screws. I was hoping I could put it there so I wouldn't smash 
it up running into the tailstock. The alternative is to put the cable 
chain on the front and that won't float at all. The dog screws might 
clear if I just glued it, but that I've not checked, been busy with TLM 
since about 5ish this morning. I found that I did not have a common 
connection from the - end of the spindle supply to the rest of the 
system grounding.

So now I'm in the genesis stage of adding a couple timedelay's to TLM's 
hal file to detect a stopped spindle 100 milliseconds after the motor 
has been enabled.  The idea is to issue an estop, and hold it long 
enough (say 5 seconds?) the motor will have coasted to a stop before its 
released and I can restart from the F1 key.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
