After regrinding lathe ways, it's time for assembling. Some pictures of procedure I didn't make because I was to excided. Next step will be leveling and centering ways, headstock and tailstock. For now I have clerance 0,03 mm without tailstock on 200 mm long piece (this is for centering headstock), I can get it on zero but it requires patience.
The ways, and headstock seat is regrinded, so I have the approximate level of the centers again but the tailstock is 0,10 mm over the headstock center and I must scraping it.
I hope that you understand me.

Miroslav,

It looks fantastic! The grinding turned out very well.
I like that green colour....it matches your other equipment.

For everyone's reference, this is where you started:

I hope that you understand me.
I understand what great effort and cost you have invested in restoring this machine.
I really respect that.

And, by the way, your english is excellent.

Thanks for posting!
