Mini Lathe Upgrade: Oil Lubricated Headstock

In this one, I show you how I modified the headstock on my mini lathe to add oil bath lubrication for the spindle bearings and gears. I install oil seals, make some new retainers and add some fill and drain plugs. The headstock gears and bearings now sit in an oil bath and are very well lubricated. This is one of the best upgrades I've made to my mini lathe.

Special thanks to John Russell for recommending I make this video.
