This is my 1st lathe. I found it for sale in the classified adds, went to check it out and loved it. It did come from a good home. Over all it seems ito be in pretty good shape despite it’s age. There’s some play in the compound and cross slide. Ways are usable as is . I will fix it up the best that I can, and keep it an original piece of American iron. I think it may be missing something on the taper attachment, any help will be welcome. Included in the photos are some badges where it may have lived before early in it’s life. This machine is in working order.
