Off the lathe. I had pulled the spindle to replace the belt with a continuous synthetic one, and wanted to test the new set up out. Still some vibration to work on, but man the size of that spindle and the 80 year old tapered bronze babbit lined bearing was something to behold. Lu and Paul in particular would have appreciated the workmanship that went into that headstock.
