Cut out the overlay cutout from metal.

I made a headstock from a tube. Cut off a piece of the tube. He made a cut in the tube in the form of a crown. Soldered the crown to the nut. Screwed the manufactured headstock to the engine shaft.
He made a handyman and set it on the bed.
Made a tailstock. I bent a corner from metal. Drilled a hole at the height of the headstock. Soldered the nut. Screwed a long bolt with a pointed end into the nut. The headstock will be fixed with a counter nut. He drills two holes in the lower part of the corner and fastens the headstock to the bed.
