Comments:

We found this lathe in my late grandfather's shop. I never knew he had a lathe--it was buried on the lower shelf of a workbench, with a few Craftsman lathe tools. There was a 1/2 hp motor there, but that may have gone to the nearby 4" jointer. The color is original, but obviously from some future nightmare. This is from the AMF-DeWalt era, leading to the 1950's date. There is no info on the data plate besides the ULA model.
