      Actually yesterday afternoon . A really nice wood case , each block   
   is serialized and has the chart of variances  . Not that I'll ever need   
   to work to those tolerances .

   I sort of acquired a new toy, in the form of an old one I'd become disgusted   
   with. It's a small rotary table with worm gear backlash that can only be   
   adjusted out at the one tight spot. I wanted to mill a hex recess for a 1/2"   
   Grade 8 nut for the stripped blade tensioner screw on my sawmill and it   
   served perfectly, as long as I remembered to tighten the table clamp.   
      
   Reviews suggest other small inexpensive rotary tables are worse than mine.
