(Admin-2Nov2010: revised specs.)

(Revised 1Feb2013 to correct the machine size and add some history)
Purchased off of Craig's List in Katy Texas. Previous owner got it from a deceased relative and let it sin and rust in the garage for 5 years or so). His name was Wane IRBY (name on tooling that came with the lathe)

I have cleaned and painted it, added missing parts including both feet, Countershaft, Covers, etc. Additionally, I have added a Quick Change Gear Box. (all eBay items)

It also came with the steady rest shown in the picture, but I think it was home-made. Looks to have been torch cut out of 3/4 inch plate.
