Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] glueing teflon and such

Dave,

Take a look www.woodcraft.com ,they have UHMW strips 3/4 and 3" wide by .025
thick with adhesive backing. I used it on the cross slide on my "Smithy"
Lathe, it has been in place for about two years and has not move yet. It
sure took away the stick and slip.
