That's bad and that's why I had to put back on the modern base plate angrily. Was 'Made in USA'.

I also had that mis-alignment problem, filed the mounting holes for stationary point block so it could be adjusted to line up.

Brattons sells a modified point block that corrects this issue. New original style points
arm is too long. Brattons are the only vendor to offer this point block. I recently converted back to original design parts, had issues with the nurex wireless plates. The original parts with this point block has been working perfectly.
