I bought this for $200 through Facebook Marketplace. I bought it from a young man who is an Industrial Arts teacher at Minster High School in Minster Ohio. The lathe came from their shop when they were liquidating.

Comments: This is after cleaning and repainting. When I bought this, I didn't realize this had the countershaft assembly as there was a piece of sheet metal covering the front. I replaced the old bearings on the countershaft with new sealed bearings.

Comments: The headstock with serial number. No model number. Had to have a new spindle nut made as the original had a hairline crack (over torqued by some brawny high school kid)
