Have one on me. The front of that casting surely would be ideal to mount a plate to reverse the handwheel.

Did you turn it through its full travel to make sure it doesn't bind at the extreme left or right table position? Now you are seeing why I said a few posts ago, take it slow, remain calm lol.
Or just put a power feed on it. Yes I know all you guys scoffed when I put a power feed on my Y but I'm telling you, its awesome.
Now with the ball screws and nuts he could probably turn it with a cordless drill, I seem to recall using a cordless drill when doing my CNC conversion years ago vs hand cranking myself to exhaustion. When you get into these conversions and your putting the table on and off multiple times, yeah poor Bill I know exactly how a guy can get well, upset. lol
The screws aren't machined for your hand wheels?
