As usual I'm getting carried away on this lathe. After cleaning all the parts on the carriage I started fitting them back together to check for wear. The half nuts just needed adjusting and they were good to go. The lever that engages the cross feed had some slop in it. Probably not a big deal as it wouldn't affect the operation of the machine....but I like to tight controls. I clamped the bracket on the mill table, located the hole with a 1/2 drill blank (sloppy but close enough) and bored it out to 5/8. Pressed a bushing in and reamed it. Nice tight fit. I replaced the bushings in the feed gears. That left the carriage handwheel shaft. The bore in the apron housing was wallowed out to 0.701. The shaft is 11/16. I mounted the shaft in the lathe and turned it down to 0.626 and the polished it down to 0.625. Tomorrow I'll bore the hole in the housing to 0.750, press a bushing in it and the apron is ready for paint.
