I Purchesed a used lathe that’s missing the adapter that holds the #4 Morse taper in the head stock. To align the tail stock with the head, I put a 4 Morse taper in a 4 jaw independent chuck and zeroed with a test indicator. I installed an Edge tail stock alignment bar between centers and when indicated on the Edge bar at chuck end I get .003 runout. So I changed up and zeroed my test Indicator on the edge bar at the chuck end. My question-is this the correct way to do this ( zeroing The chuck on the Edge bar instead of the 4 taper it’s self? Or is there a better way of doing this?
Thanks A Leaphart
