Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Scraping

Since scraping has come up, I'm wondering if anyone could comment on
how one scrapes the inside-slanted surface of dovetails? I was thinking this
morning that if I ever finish getting the ballscrews on the lathe, it
might be nice to make some provision for mounting a mill head on the
ways and clamping work to a larger, T-slotted cross-slide. This would
require milling and then scraping a dovetail way.

(I seem to recall Metal Lathe Accessories make a slotted crosslide
kit, which perhaps I should look into for an answer to my question).
