Hello,
I have a mid 70's Voest DA 210 engine lathe. The machine is in pretty good shape. The ways have a bit of wear on them near the gap plate but for a decent hope shop machine.
Anyway, I was using a parting tool and jammed a piece of material between the chuck jaws and the bed0. The spindle is now bent, I switched to a different chuck to be sure. The spindle is a L0 mount.
Is there anything I can do, or is the lathe trash? I have been unable to find any source for parts and even if there was I'm not sure if it would be worth reparing.
Its been a long time since I have visited the forum but I wanted to thank everyone for the feedback!
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Eric Fitzgerald
