It seems unlikely to me that the HS is out of
alignment. The TS easily could be, but you can get it
close enough for most work by simply turning a point
onto a piece of stock using the compound and bringing
the point of a dead center mounted in the TS to meet
it (see photo).
What diameter stock are you turning and how are you
holding it?

Good Morning All:
Having trouble setting up a Homier 7X12 lathe
recently
purchased. This lathe is turning a taper from
tailstock to headstock
no matter how much adjustment I make to correct
tailstock setover. Is
it possible that the tail and head are not set
parallel to eachother?
Has anyone else run across the same difficulty? Any
advice on this
problem, with methods to correct it would be greatly
appreciated, as
this little unit appears to be a good value for the
money. Best
regards, Nick
