Hercus 260 tailstock vertical alignment
We recently purchased a Hercus 260 (model ATL) for our Makerspace. We put a precision bar between centres and measured the runout. We managed to align the tailstock horizontally to < .001" but discovered that the tailstock is sitting 0.009" above the spindle axis. If it was the other way we could shim it but I don't see an obvious way of bringing it down. Does anyone have any advice?
