Default Re: Head skimming: Any tips?

Mart, I found that on my Bridgeport 9x42, I can get a head on there but have to use all of the table with the Bridgeport head all the way to the right. So having done that I use all of the table. But my machine has wear in it and will cut things into a banana. Its because of wear. With the table all the way to one side the weight of the table is pulling that end down, then when in the middle it levels off and goes to the other end and it hangs from the weight again, therefor cutting the head into a banana high in the middle. Never found a way to get it out of it.
