Smithy 1220XL

Smithy 3-in-1 Lathe/Mill/Drill, presumably a 1220 XL, based off the table size.

Here are the seller's pictures since I haven't taken any of my own yet:

The seller claims it was used less than 10 hours in its life, but they must have been some abusive hours.  There is a chunk missing out of the table (seen in the left middle picture), bent/stripped/loose/missing handles and knobs, and a scored MT3 to JT33 drill chuck arbor.  I need to strip the machine, clean it up, and put everything back together before I take my own pictures. (Hopefully most of the slop will be gone when I'm done!)
 
Grr, post A which holds two of the leadscrew gears worked its way out of the hole it was press fit in.  I think it was caused by binding between the change gear plate (Red) and the back of the spline that holds gear D (Green).  I should be able to get rid of this binding by putting shims between the spacer (Blue) and the change gear plate.
