Vintage Clausing 12 inch Metal Lathe

For sale is a Vintage Clausing 12 inch Metal Lathe. This is an old lathe, I believe from 1941; the bed way is stamped 1941. There are 24" between the centers. The spindle is 1 1/2" - 8" TPI tapered...

Wouldn't mind getting my hands on that steady rest .

For some reason, I really like the look of the base cabinet. Mike
 
That's a model 100 I think- MK1 or MK2?
That IS a nice cabinet
I like that ancient old motor too- reminds me of the old Santa Cruz penny arcade for some reason

There will be a similar one but with the QC gearbox and 36 inch bed, going up for sale soon in the SE Wisconsin area. I have no idea of the price or timing just yet.
 
The 1941 that is stamped in the bed is not a date, it is the Serial No.

Does the boardwalk still exist in Santa Cruz, or was it taken down. Haven't been there in decades.
 
Oh the Boardwalk is still there, but the arcade I'm not sure- I remember the arcade as it was in the 60s, no electronic games just pinball machines and target shooting and a big tank with boats you could control with a steering wheel I think, a gypsy woman in a glass box
and a machine that would shock you when you pulled the handle LOL I never tried it
 
MY favorite was bumper cars: got tossed out a couple of times for aggressive driving. :)
