Has there been any threads or webites that document rebuilding a bridgeport with good pics? Or if there isn's pics, something that's well written and clear on what is being done.

I'm more mainly talking about rebuilding the ways/table/screws.

The main reason I ask is that I haven't found a machinery repair place around in my area (south east FL) and if I pick up an old machine, I'd like to get it nice and square and tight. I know nothing about how to scrape and I feel it'd probably way beyond my scope. Is rescraping always necessary to recondition the machine?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks

Look in the Bridgeport section of this message board for various threads.

Vince has a HUGE thread wherein he rebuilds/retrofits a Bridgeport:
