Myford Super 7 - bed - part 4 - scraping vertical guides

Continuing on the scraping of the vertical guides. I didn&show much of the actual scraping, but then again, it wasn&too much to do. Somewhat low area where the inner guide of the saddle had been mostly, and some minor defects, but all in all, not much wear. I show only the measurement of this inner way, but the other surfaces will be done, ie. scraped and measured, just like this, all referenced towards the rear (unused/unworn) guide. I did scrape this a little to make it dead flat, but not much. It was made (milled) at the same time they made the rest of the bed, so it should be parallel and pristine as made since this surface is not in use for the "narrow guided saddle" machines (as mine is), hence useful as a reference surface for the other vertical ways. The final touch up and finish scraping is also not shown here, but follows the same procedure/principle (lesser blade radius, narrower blade, shorter stroke, lift and come out for each stroke etc.) The measurements are the same as shown before in the previous video, although I would also do the angle test to ensure I have retained the 90 degree angle to the flat surfaces. It may be argued that this is not critical since the saddle should be "fitted" anyway, but still..
