Wood lathe restoration

In this video I am restoring and later renovating an old lathe for wood which I found on the internet. This lathe was produced by Soviet Union in 1980 and was intended for the school (model STD-120M). The internet seller assured me that it was in good working condition, but unfortunately it was defective. There were serious electrical issues with it, and a number of mechanical faults. I spend a lot of time on this project. But in the end the effort has paid off and I am very happy with the outcome and can now try wood turning.
