Springfield Lathe

Next up, since the idea was to test the gearing in all possible speeds, I had to fix two of the three levers.
This lever assembly has both a left-right motion, and in-out, shifting something very much like the old
"three on the tree" manual transmissions from back in the day. It had been bashed at some point,
which snapped off the 'ears' of the shifter fork inside. Fortunately again, the parts had been
retained, and initially, it was an easy welding job.
