My quill came out

Post by truxton »

The quill on my headstock came out. It may have been over extended, not really sure how or what happened. The machine was not running at the time and was in the drill press position. Anyone here know how to get it back in and working? Thanks

I suspect that you have a missing set screw]this Sawdust Session[/URL] in preparation for going back to the task of making sawdust.

Thank you very much for the reply and the link to the video. The set screw at the top managed to get lose. You have been a great help and I appreciate it. Truxton
