Many mechanical parts cost a small fortune to replace.

I'm wondering if any members of this group have power equipment such as
lathes, milling machines, cutters, formers, molders, etc., [other than
welding], that they are successfully using to modify, repair, and
duplicate... pieces of varying materials.

If yes, what are you using and to do what ?

I recently ran into the problem of replacing/repairing a windlass rope
drum and it's unreasonably expensive and I'm motivated to unhitch from
vendors and suppliers to that extent possible and reasonable, which I know
varies from person to person.

Appreciatively,
Courtney
