Springfield Lathe

Now it's time to dig deep. While much of the external damage would be easy to fix, if any of the headstock
gears or shift dogs were broken or damaged, something like that could easily turn an already questionable
rebuild into a true money and time sink. Fortunately, upon opening the headstock cap, it appeared that
everything was in fine shape. The corners of some gears showed a touch of wear where some user had
clearly tried to shift it while everything was still rolling, there were no missing teeth, cracked gears, or
damaged shifting mechanisms. Better still, there was no sign of previous damage that had been repaired.
