--- Quote ---Will there be any metal finishing applied to help deal with rust over the years or will you just attempt to keep it well oiled over the years and hope that is enough?
--- End quote ---

No Paint (dont like the look of painted stock material) and no oil (it will collect the grinding cust like a magnet...), so I will try something like a hard carwax, thats applied to all steel parts.

Good news, the spindle is finished:





The spindle can be mounted in two different orientations, depending on the work that has to be done.

The bearings are standard angular contact types with seals, and preloaded via 4 springs, almost the standard Quorn Design.
