I hope thats the case . Its an easy fix. I just dont think it would be .
BUT know if the new screw doesn't fix the problem its clearly not the lead screw.
Were do you live . Im sure any one on...
I dont think its the lead screw . I think its the casting. Chances of you getting 2 in a row a slim to none. Ballscrews will allow you to use your own mounts and not the ones supplied.
All the chinese mills we buy are called "kit mills" or lathes for a reason.
Something needs to be done to all of them. Some more than other. Sometimes people can live with what ever problems there...

If you have the money larger is always better. Small parts can be made on big lathe but big parts cant be made on small lathes.
