So I have an old bridgeport clone and an old vise. Both seem in decent shape. I trammed the head in both directions to the table. I also squared the back face of the vise to the head I was able to reach out about 5 inches from center with the indicator. I keep cutting a taper. I’m not sure if it’s my fault or the machines.
I need to re check tram on the table and to the vise. Ideally the vise is completely true and level but im sure that’s not always the case.
Should I be tramming the head the vise since thats the primary workholding feature?
