Hi,
?
I¡¯m using a test bar in the head stock taper¡.
?
I have polished the inside of the spindle and removed any traces of dirt, Then I removed the run out at the far end of the bar by hand lapping the test bar off of the machine being careful to mark the high spots with dye!
?
I then carried on until I had .001mm - .002 run out at the long end - so I know the bar is good?
?
Then using the carriage with the dti trammed the bar and found the error !!
?
(Left to right error)
?
I haven¡¯t checked vertical just yet¡
?
Cheers Rick
