    I was just looking at that also Tommy?? The only thing i can see is support for the cable carriage which looks alot longer than what i have seen before.

    the overhang on the gantry is to run the torch out over the tubing cutter.
    I thought I should have that because I use a lot of pipe for chain link fence.
    It may be good for coping or address posts or who knows what.
    Yes both sides have vee rails the slave side rollers float side to side maybe 1 inch or so.

    DT has some good ideas. You will find all sorts of things to do with the tube cutter, I am sure.

    The vees will be nice, right now I have to blow the rail off before I start to cut and in between cuts if I am cutting close to the slave side.

    I used hevy walled tube for my rails.
    The conners have a large radius so when I screwed down the rail it did not sit square. I did a hay wire repair buy putting a set screw in the radius at each mounting screw with a hole in the opposite side for a hex wench so as to ajust the track seems to work hopping for the best.
