It's a cool lathe with a lot of goodies with it, good condition and cared for. If I was looking and had the cash I would have bought it, If I had a place to set it up. My little 10 went in the basement without a fuss piece by piece. I dig my lathe, and you will yours, be happy with it, tune it up, and make stuff.
I dig my lathe too ! Got it home today ,nice smooth ride on a single axle trailer with no spare ...Did bring an extra tire in-case things got bad ....Lathe is nicer than I expected ...It was dark in the garage it was in......lots of tooling with it ....it's the 622 14 1/2 made ...don't know the year after 47 though ....I took off the tail and saddle ...Saddle was heavy for 2 strong guys....tail was heavy for one ...so that saved a little weight ...we slid it over to the trailer on six bars I brought and pulled it up with a come-a-long ...It wasn't bad at all ....it's on a trailer in the backyard waiting for a machine maybe tomorrow or Mon.
Very,very happy with this ....so far and it just gets better ...
