I need to correct my tailstock's vertical alignment. It's down just shy of 0.01". I must admit I forgot to check vertical alignment on it after refurbishing the lathe and started actually using it. Now I've got a few jobs coming up that I'd rather keep the work on the lathe and use the tailstock to drill instead of moving work to the mill. So what shim stock for the tailstock should i get? With galvanic corrosion in mind I'm thinking stainless or brass. What say ye?
