Ok guys,
Here is the deal, as many of you know I have purchase my first lathe, a used Tida TD5a.
I have been playing with it for a month or so and have just completed my first project.
Well in using the lathe I have noticed that the tailstock when locked down as tight as I can get it seems to want to move when under pressure. I have a feeling that the little cam inside there is worn?
I haven't tried pulling it apart or anything yet, just wanted to throw that out there and see if you all had any ideas of the issue?? Is it an easy fix??
Gary
