The gear that connects the carriage hand wheel to the gear that contacts the rack seem to have excess play, I can turn the handle so the dial reads .45 before the backlash ? is taken up. The gear contacting the rack itself is fine, there is very little play there but the combo gear and the carriage hand wheel gear are the culprits.
Of course there is no adjustment for those gears but I was wondering if there is a fix, maybe like a piece of brass shim stock that could wrap one of the gears that would stay in place some how ? does anyone have experience with this problem.
