Hello all. I know there’s tons of info out there for this particular situation but I have kind of a unique situation I need advice for. I have an older 12x36 Enco lathe that I have been trying to level and get the twist out of. Problem is no matter what I do I can’t get it to level. It’s like the setup is too ridged. When I got the machine it was setup the way it is now. It has had a large heavy steel frame built around the actual lathe bench and I believe it’s what’s got me chasing my tail. I was thinking about taking the framing off and sitting the lathe bench on the floor, on leveling feet of coarse, so that the bed can twist the way I need it to. However that’s not going to be an easy task so I wanted to get some advice from some people that have felt with and knows a thing or two about how a bed reacts to certain stresses. Before I go through the task of lifting the lathe and resetting everything. Thanks in advance. I will add some photos of what we are dealing with.
