I purchased this lathe at auction. It was mostly intact but in bad shape. The lathe had likely been dropped at some point as many of the handles and levers in the front were broken. I did a complete restoration including making new brass nameplates. I think the only non-original parts are the toolpost and the apron wheel. I found a larger than stock wheel and put that into service since the original had been broken.
