The apron on the Summit leaks somewhere, (trying to find where AGAIN). Tried to remove the sight glass to see where the oil level was, it crumbled, (may have been the leak but think I would have seen the oil streak). Made one and had Julia cut me a glass disk. Sealed the disk to the tube with a bit of RTV.
Installed.
Removed the guards from the lead screw to look for the leak. Had never checked out the lead screw. Was impressed, its 50 mm dia and 2 tpi. Quite a chunk of steel.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
