CL's find. All original and complete. Included 6" face plate, 4 jar chuck, 12" tool rest, spur & cup centers,1/2 HP Delta motor and No. 1463 bench with yellow pine boards. It has the counter shaft which gives 16 speeds ranging from 340 RPM's through 3400 RPM's. I have yet to use it.

In the mix also were old wood turning chisels. All were rusted. I just recently sand blasted the rust off the chisels and it revealed the name Marples & Sons, Sheffield, England. The handles were sanded and varnished. A stand was made for the chisels out of American Chestnut.
