I hope I am in the right forum,never had this many places to post.
So here goes my uncle Tucker left me his lathe and more when he passed.Truth be told I would rather have him then his stuff.But that is out of my hands.
So my question is does anybody else besides me have a "Sidney Machine Tool Co. "lathe?
John O at PM tells me it's pre 1930.
I have searched the web for three years and not found anything close. Came close on u-tube with herringbone lathe rebuild.
I know PICS PICS PICS,not counting my noob intro this is my first post .I will try to go to the Pic posting fourm later and learn the right method to post pics.
So to sum it up any help with my lathe would be greatly aprecatated{SP}.
