 Straightening a Shaft!??
I have just picked up a small knee mill and am now in the process of rebuilding it. One problem I've now run across is the one of the threaded table shafts is bent. It's a semi long shaft (30"), threaded and has a number of different diameters on it. The end portion where the hand crank is, is 1/2" in diameter x 7" long, unthreaded and this is the area where it’s bent. Does anybody have or know any "trick" ways to straighten a shaft of this diameter? THX! ...Mark
