DIY wool felt wiper for lathe rail

[zzy9903]

The original rubber wipers on my lathe weren't working very well, so I replaced them with a few new ones made from copper sheets and wool felt, and I recorded most of the production process, which I'm happy to share with you

I have always liked a 2 for 1 deal! This is a great idea. Do you mind if I copy you?

Of course not, in fact the idea was borrowed from an old lathe whose name I can't remember, in homage to those clever engineers.
