New To Me 11" Logan 920

Extropic - thanks. Ok - that makes sense - I wondered about reversing and the potential for having a heavy runaway object spinning at my feet...

Need to revive my mill thread - and see if I can convince you to re-visit your proposal for the screw extensions where needed for adding handles.
I did not fully comprehend that one at the time - but suspect I might do better a second time around with a bit more experience under my belt (and a lathe in my garage!)

Here's a thread you can get some ideas from: https://www.hobby-machinist.com/threads/little-atlas-618-with-a-big-cross-feed-dial.19920/ I've also thought about tapping the end of the cross slide screw, use that to screw on an extension, then put a sleeve over the joint with lock-tite. Enlarge the ID of the extended screw bushing as needed. Here is an article on what most people come to as how to remove the end play from the gap needed for the micrometer dial to turn: https://www.hobby-machinist.com/res...outh-bend-heavy-10-small-dial-cross-pdf.2218/
