This has been in the family for many years and was operational but not being used. Recently made safe and updated for casual use.
Electrical:no shorts found. Replaced: cord (upgraded to grounded), internal wiring- 14 g machine wire, motor rated 20 A switch.
Mechanical: replaced bearings (87502), tool rest bolts (carriage head-ground to fit), cap nuts on body through rods, 0.22 " acrylic eye shields (will try to find laminated glass, originals are pitted)
Finish: light sanding, sprayed with Rust-Oleum Hammered Black 7215, ID plate was gently cleaned to avoid damage.
Currently still has the wheels found on it. (All photos done with Moto Z4)
