Same for small compound.
Added bearings to those housings.
In headstock, i removed runner so spindle is direct driven by dc brushless motor.
Bigger chuck and backplate.
Modified tailstock locking and added bearings at handwheel.
Raised whole lathe at cast iron feet.
Also added tapered gibs at saddle.
Drilled chip plate, added coolant reservoir and pump.
Made modifications to gears transmission and plate where they reside but it still need some tweaks.
Added carrier ring for dividing plates at spindle...
Made new steel QCTP....
And stainless steel wheels
