I just bought a Craftsman/Atlas 12x36 - model 101-28940 as my first lathe. As near as I can tell from what I have found online, it is a mid-1970's model.
It is in good condition with little wear, and came with lots of tooling, including cutters, reams, drill bits (big ones), a milling attachment, 3 and 4 jaw chucks, and lots of other tooling. It is mounted on an old metal desk with a chip tray under it. It isn't actually that green, the picture is just bad. I forgot to take my camera with me when I bought it.
I'll get better pics up after I pick it up.
