Continuing work on this 1941 South Bend Lathe.

Continuing work on this 1941 South Bend Lathe. Spent some time taking apart the headstock. The white thing in the photo is a 3D printed thread protector. Not completely necessary, but I wanted to try making it. The headstock houses the drive pulleys as well as a back gear that slows the rotational speed of the spindle, as well as the spindle itself.
