Hello
To repair the damage to the lathe bedway, I glued wet/dry strips onto wood. The strip width and location matched the damaged area so I wouldn't take metal off good parts of the bed.
The chrome bed is very hard and only a small amount of metal was removed. Bearing blue showed a good fit to the saddle with no sign of high spots.
