Clausing-Colchester Handwheel Sheading Metal Slivers

I wanted to report that the hand wheel for the cross-feed on the Clausing-Colchester Lathe is shedding its chrome plating. I’ve cut my hand and gotten small metal slivers from the hand wheel on several occasions - not a big deal, I can deal with slivers (and blood) I just wanted to report the issue.
