the fact it was chattering on a light cut in brass means the ways are fucked and need reworked even the spindle bearing is gone on it just because you cleaned and repainted it means nothing if its not functioning as intended

top tip ! put the chuck in a can of diesel for a few days. it will then come apart easily !

As I watched the disassembly, I am reminded of when I was around 10; I was given an old pocket watch just to take apart. But I had no idea how to put it back together.

What a beautiful machine ! I'm glad you didn't polish it to death. Amazing that parts are still available. Very nice project...

Very nice work my friend. That lathe was just waiting for you to fix it he he. It looks good now. Wow. <br>Keep it coming

Great work! Just starting my BF Barnes Lathe restoration. Word of caution for restoration enthusiasts: Paint that old needs to be treated as if it contains lead, because it probably does. Lead additive is a great rust inhibitor back in the day.

You really know your stuff! Especially the part where you are welding cast iron! Very well done!
