I've got a 10k lathe, circa 1967, and the key inside the spindle recently got damaged (not sure how, but suspect that I may have inadvertently forcefully tightened down a collet whose keyway wasn't properly aligned). Any advice for how to remove and replace the key without damaging the threads would be very welcome. Specifically wondering if I tap out the old one from inside the spindle (the key itself appears to be gone) or from outside). Hopefully attached photos make the problem clearer... thanks for any advice!!
