I found this lathe in the back of an old sawmill just over the Vermont border. Everything they didn't need was in a barn out back. It was oringally in the main mill but had been moved/retired and the owner rationalize scrapping it or throwing it out. It is a Seneca Falls Star Treadle Wood and Metal Lathe (powered by two foot treadles).

Working on removing the rust through electrolisis. Had both the tail stock and cross slide. I believe this machine was used to make screws.
