Comments:
Purchased this lathe and most of another of the same model from an auction. It had been sitting outside for quite some time when I acquired it. I fully disassembled everything and removed all rust and changed the bearings. I left the original paint because I prefer the look. The lathe came with the large Jacob's chuck along with a homemade 3 jaw chuck. (The chuck is now proudly displayed on my wall as an example of incredible ingenuity).
