Metal Lathe Restoration

[PJs]

Thank PJs.

Hand Scraping is a vacation of my nerves

For CNC I have to make a plan and get the material.

This lathe was used for the manufacture of electric motors.

Roger That! I hear you, it's like Zen to me too as well as lapping and polishing!

Interesting lathe use, as years ago as a wrench (specialty carb/electric shop) I used to use a lathe for doing bus/car/truck starter motor and old generator rebuilds for the same thing...turn/cleanup and scrape the buildup out of the slots on the commutators. Also to clean up the bearing surface with fine emery. Too Cool!

Look forward to your build!
