Hmmmmm, The axle has a pressed bearing on it. Might make a good steady rest
with that.

First take off your tailstock, then get an old axle that your rim will
fit on.
Chuck it in the 3 jaw,
Support the axle with a steadyrest. This will allow you to file out the
dings with a good aluminum file and polish the rim.
