About to put a new-to-me reconditioned Sheldon back into service, tailstock quill appears to have had more than a couple of spin-outs...
I'm thinking about cleaning it up with a MT reamer, held in a floating reamer holder using the 6-jaw Buck set-tru on the spindle (I do need to get a MT to straight adapter for the chuck). Didn't think it would be as good to just do it by hand, and the floating holder will allow for any slight misalignment of centers. Seems to me to be a bad idea to use a rigid setup by just chucking up the reamer and running it in...
Sound thinking, or is there a better way to go about this?
