Proper size Tee nuts for 9x49 Bridgeport

[Alittlerusty]

After you thread your tee nuts it's a good idea to damage the bottom thread so it stops your bolts
From damaging the bottom of your table slots

Be advised the table slot width can accumulate grime and crud over the years such that a 5/8in t-nut will sometimes not be able to slide freely. Scraping and steel brushing the side walls of the slots will fix this.

My Bridgeport has been scrubbed and oiled. I'll get some pictures up. It's a really cool machine.
