• The ways of the lathe are the flat or V‐shaped surfaces on which the<br />
carriage and the tailstock are moved left and right.<br />
• Each has its separate pair of ways, often one flat surface, for stability, and<br />
one V‐way for guidance in a perfectly straight line.<br />
• These ways are hardened and scraped or ground to close tolerances.<br />
Bedways<br />
• The basic accuracy of movement of the carriage depends on the ways.<br />
