I tried many times to place the wooden dowel on the lathe at 21/2
inches. It always moves to 2 inches only. Please what am I doing wrong?

Thanks so much.

Hi marie,

From UHS Hints: Looking at the measuring stick above the fresh dowel in the lathe, the blade's position seems to begin before the 2 1/2" point you are interested in. You'd better move the blade once to the right.

See if that helps you. If the cut appears in the wrong place, move a fraction further to the right and try again. Make sure that the switch on the right is at the correct setting.

Thanks for the tip. It worked. I have a new problem. I spelled the name spatzi on spook ten, however nothing happened. Is there a special way to set the letters?

Thanks in advance.

marie,

Did you get the word after you called the expert on Kessler?
It will not work if you haven't.

Did you do this part from the walkthrough:
Go see Ingrid; she has the arm that belongs to Spook Ten. Take it back to the haunted house and attach it with the pliers. Click on the pliers about 4 times or his arm might fall off.
Take the red tag off his chest and return it to Harlan so he can turn the power back on Spook Ten.
Now go back to the haunted house and click on Spook Ten's chest and enter the nickname spatzi.
