Hello Im new here. Im trying to repair my vintage takisawa lathe. It is in fundamentally good shape however there is a slip while moving longitudally. It is in the output gear that drives on the toothed rack. It is noticeable 1m r every rotation. So I assume that gear is connected via a key and the key is slightly worn?
Ive got the carriage off and all the handles removed however Im not sure how to split the case it is quite stubborn. Have I removed everything I need to. Is there a trick?
