DO try it Alan!
In another email, Cliff mntioned that on a Myford it digs in, except when
used in a back toolpost. I can't speak for Myfords (to my lasting sorrow,
I sold a precious Super 7 years ago), but it worked fine on my previous Emco
10 lathe.
I have no problem at all on my present Hardinge, but this is a heavier
lathe.
Cheers! Hubert.
