I almost started to believe people badmouthing chinese lathes when the x-slide backlash on my G4003G suddenly opened up to .045". I took apart the slide and internally it looked brand new. Low and behold, the bolt securing the lead screw nut had loosened. I tightened it up and I'm right back to .008" backlash. Not bad for a 6 year old machine! Luv my Grizzly!
