Thats what i love about this place there is an endless supply of knowledge and you guys are so helpful. I really appreciate the help.
I took the mount back apart and fixed the housing to point the correct way, and there is min 25mm clearance for the drive gear.
Ian all of the suggestions you have made are great the most important being the polar alignment, it is truly difficult and to rely on just a single bolt is just not right. It should have some type of locking pin or similar.
Well i do not have a lathe but would like to modify/fix some of the faults with the mount to make it more enjoyable to use
