A fellow OWWM'er pointed this lathe out to me on the Atlanta, GA Craig's List. I was able to swing by while on another trip and snatch it. The lathe is made by A. J. Wilkinson & Co but the treadle kick wheel is an after-market item (from the late 1800's to early 1900's time period). The belt needs tightening but other than that, it is ready to run. The guy who was selling it was a tool collector and used this lathe for turnings but had to sell due to a change in jobs that is moving him to another part of the country where he would not have room for it. He was sick to let it get away...
