Picked up a 1966 toolroom lathe, 4ft hardened bed in great shape, cam lock spindle. I want to do a full restoration on it.
I did something and was looking for some reassurance. I pulled the 3 jaw and the spindle had some light rust/pitting. I took a maroon scotch brite pad and some mineral spirits and shined her up under power with light to moderate pressure. I never thought about the idea that I might actually be damaging the spindle. Should I be worried?
