Received my G0765 lathe yesterday with freight damage....why am I not surprised?

I have had that happen due to not allowing enough side clearance on the tool. If the carnage is really miss-aligned that much, then I suggest a new lathe would be in order.

I would but and indicator in the tool post and run it across the chuck face with the cross slide to see how much the miss-alignment is under those conditions.
