Nicely shown Peter.
Seems like we took off enough then to get your tools down to the correct height.
BTW, I suggested removing a little from the top of the compound purely because I did exactly the same thing many years ago to a small myford lathe I owned, and that is still going strong now, being used almost daily, with no adverse effects.
Not like Myford, who wouldn't give any help to Pete's toolpost problem at all. Absolutely typical of a company that is still working 50 years in the past, and don't seem to consider a QCTP as a normal fitting.
I just couldn't believe that a company would put 3 jacking screws right thru the top of the compound casting just to push out a fairly loose fitting toolpost stud, when they should have been in the stud flange instead.
Mind you, I suppose they did that so that they could charge an extra 10 or 20 squid per hole (not including grubs screws).
