Hi, while chucking in a collet and drill in my mini mini metal lathe
which is no longer produced and parts are not available, I noticed
that there appears to be a wobble of the drill. The guage said
about 5/10,000 at the headstock. While no lathe is perfect
how much can one get away with without ruining jobs?
Any adjustments, etc. I can make or must I assume the
spindle is defective and the whole restoration of the Sartglen
has come to an end?
My thanks, Quincy
