Hey PM -
I'm having an issue with my lathe and I need your help in figuring it out.
I noticed after I replaced the spindle bearings and belt on my lathe (and therefore had to take apart the spindle and countershaft) that there are brass-like shavings flying off the back of the lathe.
A bit concerning, for one, that it's right on top of the motor.
My uneducated guess is that it's the brake rubbing but I can't seem to dial it in.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
