This machine was originally purchased by SUNY Oswego. I bought it from Gallery of Machines in Marathon, NY. The lathe came with lots of accessories including the often missing lathe tool bits for use with the tool post and carriage. Came with 2', 12" and 6" tool rests, a steady rest which I believe is Oliver but haven't seen before, several face plates and screw chucks, a 3 jaw chuck, set over tailstock, and the tool post adapter for the carriage. No regular tool rest holder and the 90 degree rest did not come with the machine. It is new enough that the motor is a standard foot mount NEMA 56 frame, not the unavailable c-face mount the earlier lathes had.
