THIS MACHINE IS NOT MINE, NOR IS IT FOR SALE, DON'T ASK, AND NO I DO NOT WANT TO TRADE YOUR ITEM "X" FOR IT. THIS IS NOT A SALES FORUM AND I DO NOT HAVE MACHINERY FOR SALE HERE.

This is not my lathe. It belongs to a friend of mine in central NY state. I, and he have no back story on it. It weighs in at 200+ lbs.

[ADMIN NOTE: Changed the manufacturer names to G. L. Fairbanks and A. F. Henshaw. These two Worcester lathe makers both made the same lathe design, and this particular lathe looks like a Fairbanks or Henshaw product. Since we don't know which one, I have set the Badged Manufacturer to one of the names and the True Manufacturer to the other name. As for C. L. Rice, they were a distributor and do not merit an entry of their own in the Manufacturers Index.]
