Busy Bee lathe DF-1237G motor?

@grease monkey I pulled the crossslide gib after dinner.
It's shaped like a parallelogram as would be expected.
It is 13-5/8" long
It is .411" tall when sitting as it would be installed as shown in the picture.
The thick end (nearest the operator when installed) is .357"
The thin end is .198"

so that relief I see is where the set screw rests correct? the other end the screw comes to rest directly at the end of the gib? I cant imagine that by the time the taper comes to the end, there's much material left for a set screw relief... so a piece of material 1/2" sq 16" long will be plenty, give me somewhere to clamp and then cut to length when done
