That's a very nice repair. And without a lathe. Admirable.

Thanks Gene, it's not perfectly round, it doesn't have to be perfect, just believable, and it is.

John,


Once you refinish, it will be even harder to tell it was repaired.

Nicely done John! As Larry said, once finished it should be hard to tell it was repaired.

Very ingenious! At the first picture I was wondering how you would do it without a lathe. That is a nice fit and will be perfect when finished.



A picture is worth a thousand words.

Thank you Ron, it was delicate at times, even had a couple "Oh Shoot" moments, but it looks good. Thanks.
