Jesse, you've got me a bit confused, now.... I think I understand that the
centerline of the Atlas headstock boring device was probably not quite
parallel to the ways of the lathe bed. Is that what I should understand?
And the headstock and boring device were stationary on the bed and a cutting
tool (drill, boring bar, reamer) was fed through the device into the
headstock? Have I got it? Charles
