Then, with a smaller piece on it, I turned the speed up and saw where

the piece on through the speed range and found that the left rear
needed a1/4" turn. The thing is now as steady as a rock.


at 580 pounds it should be real steady

looks like a nice lathe

seems to be well made

i always thought the movable power control was a good feature but
now wonder if i would forget to move it or forget the position when
i needed to shut if off quickly

would probably leave it near the outboard side
