Here we go, a beautiful Jig Borer from Moore find is way to the shop.
I have couple observations on this machine and I want to know is other owner had the same issues.
1- There is a knob in the center of the quill wheel, doesn't seem to do anything... Is it the locking mechanism?
2-When the seller show it, he traverse the x table to far, the lead screw doesn't seem to engage in the nut. Is it a case of disassembly or just hitting it with a soft hammer to reengage it?
3-There is a came on the right of the head next to the thermometer, what is it for?
4-Is there a reverse on the spindle?
5-What kind of tapper does it take morse?
Thanks,
Simon
