Picked this (and the Cratsman 1/2HP USA made motor) up off CL. No serial number but the Boice-Crane catalogs show it was made after 1929 (replacing the flatbelt versions) and seemingly ended in the early '40s. It's 36" between centers, 11" swing over the gap and 8" over the bed. A small simple bench lathe. I sold this as I don't really want to get into turning, just yet. I did put new bearings and paint before I sold it.
