SB 16 countershaft - Album on Imgur
Having some issues with engaging the leadscrew. With the leadscrew engaged I can turn the spindle by hand, but after about half a revolution there is resistance. Things moved a lot freer before moving, but I have leveled the lathe in its new position.
The gearbox countershaft seems to be recessed excessively in the one side and proud on the other.
Before I take the leadscrew/gearbox off, does anyone have any ideas what's broke?
