Well....
I'm two parts into this now and I can say confidently that the rolled screws are fine. I am not trying to make a Haas out of my 1982 2J either. But it is well within the +/- .003 range or better. That is good enough for a bearing journal so that's good enough for what I see that I might be doing.
So...I am going to come right out and say that rolled screws are a good thing for the average used piece of bridgeport iron and the average tolerances that are really needed. In my humble noob opinion of course.
