Lathe purchased through a CL ad in November of 2008 in Bennington, Vermont. Previous owner purchased lathe from a neighbor's yard sale about 10yrs ago but never attempted to set up a flat belt pulley system. I hope to set up a countershaft and get the unit operational without a complete restoration.
Headstock is unusual in that there is only one large center bearing.
If anyone has further information on this lathe or parts or suggestions to set up a countershaft, I would love to hear from you!
