The video of Global Spindle Reman made me cringe several times.
I always wondered how they remanned spindles. Now I know that I would never want a Renan built by them. Jeeslus that video had tons of cringe in it for high dollar spindles. If I had time and needed an new spindle I’d probably try to do it myself.
