The return spring spins with the outer ring when the quill moves Z+. The spring appears coiled
almost all the way to the center. If the outer ring isn't staked to the casting, what is
keeping the spring from unwinding all the way to the outer limits? I've tried gently prying
the ring/spring combo off the center axis but something feels real solid. I have another SB
drill press and when the quill moves Z+ the center axis turns but the outer ring remains
stationary causing the spring to tighten. Thoughts on why the new one appears as a solid
immobile unit? Removal?
