HF 8x12 Lathe - Apron handwheel - too much play
The HF 8x12 - Lathe - Apron hand wheel has way too much play. It is solid on the keyway, but I must be feeling the slop of the 2 gears 606 and 608. I guess if I am turning to or away from the chuck only, then it makes little matter, BUT if I am turning a recess then I would not want to use the calibration ring, but a dial indicator only ?
