Default T&T column rebuild

I dissembled this 20+ years ago and dug it out. Thanks to the nice and raccoons tearing in to the boxes its a wonder I found any parts.
So I dissembled it the rest of the way blasted & powder coated and painted what need it. The pivot pin holes were bad so that the first
thing to deal with. We bored them out and pressed in drill bushings.

The column was damaged were the 4 lock plate screws it was welded. Assembled up to this point.
