Or is it supposed to be permanently attached via two set screws ? I ask as the set screws are seized on mine and I wondered if it could otherwise be removed and used with the vertical head 12mm square ? However, every photo I see of a first generation FP3 shows the horizontal spokes in place and a 12mm square wrench used for the vertical quill, so I suspect the horizontal spokes are meant to stay in place....but still I wonder what one would see once it was pulled off....a 12mm square or something else entirely ?
Having rambled on about that, is anyone here aware of a small 3 or 4 spoke handwheel with a 12mm square mount ? That would seem more pleasant to operate than the simple 12mm square wrench that it came with. And yes, yes....I could make one....but got better things to do than that.....plus probably no one but me would care, and I want to sell the machine anyway.
