Lathe Tune up???
I have a Rikon 71-100. It has met my needs up to the present time. Spindle turning, Plugs, bowls etc. I turned a bowl slightly heavier than usual, and now It appears that my headstock spins slightly out of alignment. Any suggestions?(I know, don't turn any bowls...)I was wondering if accessing the head stock could be done?? After removing the pullies, it appears that the "guts" of the head stock are held in with lock washers. I have looked at new Rikon's and the spindle lock on my lathe (6mo old) did not appear to hold as tightly as "newer lathes." The addiction has set in- with the lathe on the fritz- I might develop separation anxiety!
Thanks
