Hola All,
I am trying to shim the right extension table for my Delta Uni. The first measurement I took was to check the flatness of the extension table by using a straightedge and meauring diaganolly. What I found was that I could not get a straightedge under the right and left side of the straightedge so the straighedge is flush to the extension on the ends. Once I get about 2" away from either end, the middle of the straightedge dips perciptiously. I can fit a piece of paper under the middle or a feeler gauge to .013. Before I get to the shimming, is this extension table too warped?
