Just a comment about my recent conversion . The lathe seems to have much smoother travel , and cuts beautifully . I wish I had done it earlier . All I can say is that if anyone has a well worn machine its a good move and not as difficult as it may seem from reading about it . just watch out for falling shims , they seem to have a life of there own
