Welcome to the forum. If the second hand stutters then my first action would be a drop of IPA on the rear pivots. -

Tights or pantyhose over the vacuum nozzle is better than a clean bag. -

The entire lathe is very precise. Adjustable gibs to take up slack. There is a bit of backlash in the slide, but since im not using a DRO, its easy to get used to. -

Basically yes. Center it as best as you can, bore out the hole until its concentric, then plug with brass. Then, you should mount the bridge on to the mainplate, and mount the whole mainplate with the bridge facing the headstock. Then center the arbor hole on the mainplate in the headstock, and drill a small hole through the mainplate and into the new bushing. Then reverse the mainplate in the headstock again, and bore the hole to size. Then its in perfect alignment. -

Welcome ! Â I've been doing this for over 25 years and was on my knees looking for a part yesterday- it's always part of the game.
