The engraving shows an engine lathe with turret attachment made by the A. P. Wagner Tool Works, Sidney, O. The one shown is a 12-inch lathe, with 4 ½ foot bed, has screw and rod feed to carriage, same as regular engine lathe, a four-speed cone and the turret attachment shown. The head and tail stocks are both solid instead of cored; spindles of hammered steel, accurately ground; bearings phosphor bronze; carriage is gibbed front and back, has extra large bearings the entire length, and is accurately scraped to a bearing. The turret head is 6 5/8 inches in diameter, has 6 holes, either straight or Morse taper. If without bushings they are 1 ½ inches diameter or 1 ¼ inches with case hardened bushings. The slide has a movement of 12 inches. A friction countershaft is provided, and there seems to be no reason why such a tool should not be highly appreciated in any shop. |
