PM-1228 lathe, tailstock dro vernier
Hello folks
I decided I needed a tailstock dro vernier for my PM-1228 lathe. It is nearly an exact copy of Joseph Higgins (go check out his channel), with the exception being the tailstock quill has the ability to float a bit in relationship with the dro vernier shaft.
the Vernier I bought off of Ebay.
