Comments:
Direct drive lathe acquired from a collector's estate. Now in Jamie Becker's shop in Godfrey IL. Only 1/2 hp despite the size, but has an early electric speed control. Hasn't been hooked up since acquired, but bearings are still sound. Maybe not a beauty contest winner, but it sure is stout! Less than 6 ft long overall, but probably 3-400 lbs.
