Man, looks like you got everything for it... and it looks hardly used, just sat in storage.
So what projects you planning once you get it cleaned up?

From what I gather from the previous owner it sat unused for about 40 years. I have one project that I am going to do is make some domed washer dies. I might even try to get fancy with them.

Oh man that thing looks so nice! Maybe I'll have to take a trip to see it in action!

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!
