    Machines that have to be "Trammed" can have built in sliding or rotating adjustment, they have finely finished surfaces held together by clamping screws. They only work in one plane there is no gap after they have been tightly clamped together. A Bridgeport milling machine head is set up this way.
    Most lathes have a tail stock that can be adjusted in the same way. again no gaps after tightening.

    Here is another interesting link:

    Moglice is a mix of metal powders in epoxy, it is rather expensive.

    Or make your own by mixing iron powder and 24 hour Araldite. Add the powder to the epoxy and stir adding more until you get a stiff paste. Fine for grouting fixed joints.
