I acquired this lathe from a widow of a man in Marlboro, NJ who had a nice home shop. The lathe is not a museum piece but a hard working unit. I have made a few minor modifications, such as carriage stop, tool holder, calibrated the tailstock spindle. After purchasing a special gear, I was actually able to cut a metric thread on it. My next challenge will be to replace and lace a new drive belt.
