You know, I didn't even think about that being the case. I have the unused section of tubing supported but I have not verified that it's level. What a bone head move on my part. I'll have to do that next time. I might start on the passenger side tomorrow. Man I feel dumb.
Scott, you're right about the horizontal band saws. I loved all the fun equipment I had available to me when I was completing my machining degree. Kind of wish I had gone down that road a little more instead of just doing it for fun.
The friction wheel is a DeWalt unit.
Thanks guys
