Comments:
My son acquired this lathe with his own money from an older gentleman who turned and threaded shafts with it with his grandfather 60 years ago. My son purchased this for $500 in November of 2019. It came with additional tooling. i.e. horizontal mill, tool post grinder, change gears, drills, reamers, chucks and tool blanks. It has Babbit bearings. It has a 10" Swing. It has a 54" deck and measures 36" in between centers. The ways measure 3/8's" thick. This is a neat machine. Any additional info you may have would be most welcomed. We are curious of its year of manufacture and what the 28 indicates in 10F28. We can be contacted at debtfreehomesteaders@gmail.com Thank you. You can check out a video of it we made here:
