For most lathes of a reasonable size it is necessary to level the lathe to avoid inducing twist in the bed and to ensure proper alignment. There are several YouTube videos on this topic but I haven't seen any specifically aimed at levelling a Colchester Student Mk1 (or Mk 1.5). This video aims to address the specific mounting features of these lathes and offers a solution for practical levelling.
In my video Colchester Student Mk1 Lathe - Renovation Tips (Part I) I touched on this topic but inadequately. A little further thought and tinkering has led to to a better understanding of how the lathe should be levelled as presented here. Note this video doesn't deal with alignment of the headstock with the bed.
