Bent gib adjustment screws...
You ever seen a mill with metric dials but all the threads on the machine is imperial? Because that’s the case with the new to me Taiwanese mill I have. I wish I can find out what brand in the US uses that model since it’s just Taiwanese branding (one I have is called Da Li, another brand they have is Yung Jhing)
Anyways I need to know where I can find a new gib adjustment screw because while I bent it back I don’t want the head to break off at random times.
I’m going to borrow a lathe from a friend and machine one myself otherwise...
Any idea what thread it is? It looks to be about similar to M8 but does not fit M8 threads.
