    OK here you go, got her running last night. I had to make some chips. It is a very smooth running machine. I still have a bunch of work to do, I want to de-rust and paint and I still need a bunch more tooling. I am going to set up an electrolytic cleaning tank, I'll even try some of my razors in it.

    So I did some more work over the winter, I waved my magic wand and voila. It still needs some small things to be complete.

    Great looking lathe... I'm sure all the hard work will pay off big time with the things that baby will put out. ENJOY!

    That is a sweet tool and you did some great work Dan. For SRF members that may enjoy seeing similar projects, consider visiting OWWM.com. The site is devoted to the documentation, repair, restoration (as required), and to a lesser degree the use of old wood working machines.

    Tazz I would only come out of my shop to eat if I had that show up! Hell I'd try to have the wife bring in food and drink. I can't say how wickedly cool that thing is! And you've done a great of of getting her restored it seems. I'd love to see that thing in action! Great job!!!!
