Sidney work continues.

The headstock base is finally in paint, but I added a bit of thinner and it may get a 2nd coat.

The 2nd leg is painted but it looks a lot like the 1st leg.  So no image.


Started work on the headstock base.  Seen here with the first application of bondo.  About the only thing left are the bearing caps.   There is also the gear cover but it will not get painted until after it is brazed back into one piece.   There are a few gears and other small bits but they only need cleaning and painting as a rule.




Rearranged things a bit in the afternoon to move the lathe bed.   Wanted to set the bed down to free up the cherry picker and move things around to make more space.




Did more cleaning on the MM 8 Versa Mil.
