One other thing that is important. Your large dameter length of 3.250 is fairly critical once you mount the adpater to your lead screw because it sets the mesh of the pinon gear to the ring gear. To a point you can move the ring gear out using the supplied shims but it should be close. I had to remove my adpater and take just a small amount off the face of the large diameter to move the ring gear in just a bit. I ended up only needing a small amount of shim.

Yup, I realized that yesterday while I was staring at the drawings so I got the power feed out and took some measurements and had to change some dimensions on my drawings.
I need to fix my cross slide movement problem before I tackle this project though.
