Asssitance needed
I just finished boring a depression in the front of a fly fishing reel frame to accept a bezeled agate line guard. It prevent the line from cutting the soft aluminium frame pillars.
Anyway, I noticed movement in milling attachment, cross slide and the saddle. The movement was due to up directional forces as the cutter came up against the frame. I tightened up the gib in the cross slide which eliminated that some small movement in the cross slide but was still apparent on the saddle over the ways.
have a look at the pictures and you can see that my boring wasn't what is normally done on the lathe.
But I wondering if there's some sort of adjustment I can make to hold the saddle down to stay on the ways?
