Can a 5L Gisholt be 'twisted' straight by anchoring it to concrete?
Can a 5L Gisholt be 'twisted' straight by anchoring it to concrete?
(OP)
The old timers at the plant where I work tell me that it is possible to "twist" the frame of a Gisholt 5L lathe to compensate for way wear. I believe that the concrete pressure cone will fail and pull out before enough force can be exerted on the frame to straighten it. We are using 3/4" redhead self tapping concrete anchors to 'twist' the lathe straight.

Do you have cost constraints that prohibit you from having the machine fixed correctly?
Please, more info.......
