I had to put a punch mark in my cross slide 90° off to the left to serve as my zero mark to get it right. My mini hasn't seen power for quite awhile either. By the way... did you know a large Hibachi grill cover makes an excellent dust protector for a 7x10 mini lathe?  

Mine hasn't ever seen power.
