Spiralling on Spindles
I am having trouble with spiralling on spindles, and I was wondering if the problem bay be wear on the lathe headstock bearings?
The most likely cause of spiraling is that your centres are out of alignment. You should also check that your turning tools are sharp and your lathe speed is correct.
