Logan lathe gear tooth repair - ieezitin - 07-13-2015

I ran my Apron into the Quick Change Gear Box and broke two teeth on the gear change slide bars so it was either buy one or repair, i waited forone to come up on ebay but nothing turned up so i decided to repair it.


its disconnected from the lever handle.

Good goin! The one I have had so many bad spots in it, the two gears would bind at certain places.
