It may be the reason why I've wondered where I went wrong on that final cut the times when I've forgotten to lock the cross slide.
Ed, if that's the case maybe you should drill & tap for a lock on t'other side!
I also wondered why I would overshoot my intended dimension when turning to diameter. I just chalked it up to ineptness.
I'm definitely going to get that cross slide lock moved but only after I've tried figuring out why the cross slide is moving. Putting a functioning lock on will just mask the problem if I don't try to figure out the source.
