I purchased one of their kit several years ago. That project is
still on my never ending to-do list. The casting is well done.
Stress relieved means it has been heated after casting to relieve
the internal pressures so it won't warp after machining. In the old
days, they would let the parts age a year or more to relieve the
stresses.
Paula on Practical Machinist did a excellent article on machining
these. Here is the link.

Has anyone here don the MLA Crossslide for a South Bend 9A lathe ?
I'm thiking of just buying the plans & wondering do the drawings

if ya buy the casting they are " stress relieved where necessary "
just what does that mean ? I have a bud that's gonna give me the
cast iron
.
thanks
