Maybe the best solution would be to buy a new tailstock
but this was the solution that I found.


In this five vids I'm going to show a modification on the Sherline tailstock lathe
A constant sliding movement generates a wear in the base of the tailstock
this is provokes a loss of the alingnment of the tailstock with the center of the headstock
this way provoking a great difficult in making precises holes in very small diameter pieces.
This modification will allow both its a vertical adjustement as the horizontal adjustement
bringing the solution for this type of problem in the tailstocks that are already very used.

    There is no guarantee that a new tailstock would be as accurate as the one you built.

  • Very nicely done - you make a good point. I haven't use my tailstock all that much an at best it is adequate but could use a Luiz Ally make over. Like the cost effective way you approach & resolve this issues. Your choice of background music is also commendable. Thank you for sharing. PS

  • @tryally I like your Machine Tool Videos I list them in my Machine Shop videos on my channel.

    You like others I list, show a TON of skill and are very helpful to other users.

    Those playlists iare also posted to my MillEngine(dot)com website
