"New " lathe posting practice

The guy that had it is looking for it or a spare. He said he also has a straight shaft or rid for the gravity tensioner for the motor. Will need a new pulley to get power to the lathe. Everything pretty smooth and tight. He does custom steel/wood projects and seems to collect older lathe legs for his furniture. Every once in a while a good lathe turns up. I saw it in his shop last time I visited. It cost me 6 cases of Rainier beer and some brownies. I figured even if he doesn't find it I can Frankenstein or fab up a new one. Can't find much on EBay or info on it yet on a cursory Google search
 
Looks good.
......but thats the most convoluted pulley drive belt configuration i've ever seen! ;)

Cheers Phil
