I have a vintage lathe that needs to have the cross slide
thrust bearing shimmed. I'm not 100% certain, still need
to get more light on the subject and blow the hole out with
air, but I think the handle might be mounted with a blind
roll pin. Yes I agree this is a stupid way to build things.
Anyone know of special tools or methods to remove such a
thing? Or maybe I just destroy the old handle with a big
nutcracker, sawzall, grinder, or whatever and turn myself
a new one?
