I acquired it at a public auction of a cabinet shop in Hagerstown,MD. on Tuesday June 19,
2007.This is a very rare Tannewitz machine as there has never been one seen before this one as far as I know.The old owner added a bed extension to give it 60" between centers.It came with the following tooling cross slide,two toolrest holders,4"-6"-12"-36"toolrest,2 1/2"-4"-8"faceplates.The lathe has a four step pulley inclosed in the cast iron headstock and a hand brake.You can also do outboard bowl turning.
