Comments:

I purchased this lathe at a local estate sale. No History.
I'm calling it a L752 based on photos of a previous submission. There is a serial number (592456)on the motor which I presume to be original. This is my first lathe so I'm at a loss as to how the tail stock is supposed to be configured. I have the drive center and a separate pin with the same taper which may belong to the tail stock?
The lathe runs smoothly, the bearings are in good shape.
Anyway, these are the before pics. I hope to use the lathe to turn chair legs.
