I got this lathe at a garage sale in the early 80's. It was in a pile I think the guy was going to scrap it. Anyway I got the headstock,tail-stock,tool-rests,3/4 horse motor cheap. I took 3"angle iron made bed to sit them on also the cabinet. changed to v-belt drive,it had wood flat belt drive.It has lead bearings that have worked real well.I have made many projects on it,very sturdy. any info is welcome.
