Thanks Grant.... I don't think this slide plate has a screw.... it's a new replacement. I don't have any parts machines. But I'll have to wait to work on it because I'm back up at the cabin now and the machine is at my son's house downstate. Yes, it may be difficult to sand or grind straight. I've already thought of that. But I know who to ask when I get back there to work on it again.
Wow! I dream of finding a machine with such nice decals. It doesn't happen around here.
