Hi All,
I will get some photos soon but while i remember.
I need some help with some heavy handed work by myself.
My tail stock was rusted together and was a real pain to get apart.
I ended up having to belt the spindle part out from the back with a punch
unfortunately i have mushroomed in the end where the screw would go back in.
The screw will no longer fit.
The thread inside looks a little damaged but still there.
What now
Do i drill the end to make the hole the size i need to insert screw
do i get the end faced
do i send it away to get professional help
Do i get a different tail stock and make it work
