My first on line auction, Thought i would look to see if i could find a smaller wood lathe, there was 15 hrs left when i came across this lathe. slept on it and in the morning i set up a account so i could bid. My first bid got upped wright away. Raised it to what i thought my max was, once again upped wright away again so i went to lunch and when i got back i went back to the sight using my phone(Big pain) and made a couple bids on a couple other tools, and when i went back to the Oliver lathe there was less that 2 minuets left so i raised my bid by $12.00, and resent bid and got it. I will pic it up in a couple days but i was trying to find out a Little about it. My first Oliver. I would love to here from anybody that can tell me about these Lathes. Thank you. In one of the pics you can see in the back ground a delta scroll saw that i also won the bid. I bought it for the cool light that's on it, hope its still on it when i pick it up. They were being sold in Sacramento CA Less than 1 hr drive from home
