I have a Bridgeport J head 1964.
Question is:
Is the handle (on the right side of the head) the only way for the quill to move up/down , when not using power feed?
Isn't there a way to lock the handwheel (where the stub is for the power up/down feed), so you can rotate it and it moves the quill up and down without the quill just dropping if the quill lock isn't depressed?
