Yup, aka super glue, just before I install or tighten the nut. The screws axial alignment likely done by a steady rest pushing it as the spindle turns slowly, then backing off the steady rest pads so its self supporting with very little run out. Once that is done, then the chuck wrench blocks it while I bring the nut up to 1/8th turn from broke. Thats the plan, ATM waiting on china post for some 8x15x5mm ball thrust bearings. And I am out of back to do anything more today anyway. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
