I Read a tutorial reciently, where the writer said "be sure to lock the cross slide". This got me thinking, I know my 12" Logan has a carraige lock, as most (probably all) lathes do, but, in my very limited experience, I don't think there is any way to lock the cross slide, or the compound. I must admitt, there have been a few times, while advancing the carraige to turn a part, that I have thought " what is keeping the cross slide or compound from moving and screwing things up". Please educate me guys. Thanks, JR49
