The Stars Have Been In Alignment For Me This Week. Just Got My First Lathe, A D/r 11x36, 25-100

Well, this is the end of this thread. Today I sold and delivered my baby to another home. The rebuild was an enjoyable and very rewarding experience. I'm a bit sorry to have sold her, but it is unlikely I ever would have been able to put her to good use. She's a worthy tool sent to a worthy home.

Thanks for all the help and encouragement.2015-10-26 14.32.54.jpg
 
They are like a child. it's tough to let go when they leave home for a new home.

I'm fixing to let go of my 13" Sheldon Sebastian lathe that I've had for the last 37 years. Hate to see her go, but I got to make room for two more lathes that are in storage.
 
Well, I still have my little Southbend 9A to restore. That should be a fun project.
 
Excellent Post! Thank you all for your contributions; interesting and very informative.
 
Admins, this thread should be in the Delta Rockwell forum.

Thanks.
