Licking my Wounds Lathe Rebuild Project
#15
To be honest - the work isn't pretty but functional beats pretty hands down in my opinion. I repaired some broken teeth on the bull gear of my lathe by drilling and tapping to suit some 1/4" some mild steel rod that I threaded to suit. I then filling the void with brazing rod and then hand filed to shape. However, it was a much bigger gear with large teeth. So far, so good.
