I'm traveling for work today so can't dig deeper until tonight or tomorrow.
Thanks for the suggestions. Sent from my Samsung S10

went wrong. John,Two suggestions:1. I have experienced the same symptoms in the
past, and it turned out to be the bolts securing my Y axis nut (which has a
square flanged base) moving under the inertial load of the table.2. My approach
to machining the part might be to not cut the box section to an L
section.Square off the end of the box section.Mount a hard endstop on the side
of the vice (or clamp something on the table) to act as a left endstop and
reference.Put the box section in the vice.Machine the top face (for example:
the face with the two elongated holes), but leave maybe 4 tabs to hold it in
position. Don't do this right at the end of the box.Remove the box, rotate 90
degrees, and grip again, against the endstop and with the
other_face_to_be_machined uppermost.Machine that other face (the one with the
circular cut-out), perhaps leaving a couple of tabs to hold it in place and
make sure the box doesn't try to collapse inwards.Remove the box and manually
cut the tabs.Marcus_______________________________________________Emc-users
