Henry,
Thanks for posting your head rebuild adventure.
I would like to add one tip. Put a piece of wood on the table so if the quill does drop down on you it will hit the wood and not the cast iron table. I cut a piece of 1/4" plywood the approximate size of the table to help protect the table while doing the head rebuild. Then I put a piece of 2x6 on top of the plywood directly underneath the quill to absorb the shock if the quill happened to drop down on me.
