Craigslist find with lots of patina. Actually not too poorly made for what it is. Everything seems to stay fairly rigid because there is a channel coming out of the pipe on the under side. Everything moves freely. Not sure how this stand fits into the equation as the outboard side was not right for the lathe but the inboard side seems to be right with a provision for the belt. It's actually well balanced with the motor and head stock on the left end. The tool rest has an inch scale cast into it. Not too many examples here so I thought I would post it here before I unload.

Updated the age as it seemed like a 70s but the patina and the handle in the tailstock should have told me 60s. Sold for a modest profit and reinvested in a pair of cast iron legs for my keeper.
