Adding Leveling Casters to the Tormach PCNC 1100 Deluxe Stand

Holes for Power Draw Bar Cable Carrier not aligned

This mounting hole for the P/N 31476 - PDB Cable Carrier was drilled at the factory

As you can see, the hole in the mounting bracket

 for the other end of the PDB Cable Carrier are not aligned

So the welder tacked the Bracket in the wrong location. Or the person

 drilling the hole in the spindle guard drilled it in the wrong location

So I Removed the bracket

 

Aligned the bracket to the PDB Cable Carrier

Clamped and ready for welding

My friend Ken welded the bracket back on the control box. 
Thank you Ken!!
