Most tailstocks are adjustable side to side, look for the join in the
body just above the baseline. Our Raglan Littlejohn lathe is made so
you can really offset it a lot over one way and lock it in place with
a screw on each side to stop movement.

The only one we can't do that on is the Ward 2A, but that is a Capstan
anyway :-))
