Wow, what a difference. Going through the Compound last night I never noticed the gib set screw on the side. Now I know why I couldn't get the gib tightened to my satisfaction. I had a bit over .040 slop in the compound travel. That's a bunch.
New parts, cleaned, oiled and adjusted. I love it! Maybe .002 now. It will open up but a tall order away from .040. It is 77 years old.
Miller Machine is my source. The cross screw and nut will be next. I am in the spending mode right now so I need to prioritize.
So many tools, so little time.
