Got my new Cooks guides in the mail about 2 weeks ago and got them installed last weekend.
So glad to se the old sandwich guides gone.
Set up was a little tricky but I think it turned out well after a little fab work on the Bridgeport and some help from the Miller 200.
Next is a better lube system. I don't care for the drip tube and I'm trying to design a fine mist on both sides of blade or a felt wick set up.
Here's a pic of the old guides



And here's a pic of the newly installed Cooks guides

Looks real nice, it should saw a lot better.  I'd put a good chip deflector before the guide roller .   Steve

Thecfarm,
Thanks for tweaking my pictures. Not sure just what happened there,  say_what, but you got
it straightened out. Thanks again.
Steve,
Yes they came from Cooks with heavy deflectors installed.
I don't know why I waited so long to put theses on. They are sweet from what I had.
Anybody have a nice clean looking set up for a blade lube system? Was thinking about
a windshield washer pump type deal but may try diesel and oil mix. Not sure the pump
would hold up to the diesel or be able to pump a mix of that and oil.
Thanks for all your replies.
