I picked up my Victor 2040 yesterday
the move was easier that i could have ever expected, i had forklifts on both the pick up and at my shop at work.
the specifications are attached

the lathe came without many accessories, but it does have a 12" 3J Buck Set true chuck and a DRO :grin:

i'll call her Monday, because i got her on a Tuesday :grin big:
here are pictures

Looks very stout machine . I noticed a chip/splash shield over the handwheel , what a nice feature
 
Very nice, about the perfect size machine IMHO. Enjoy. Cheers, Mike
 
You putting this lathe in your home shop?
Nice lathe Mike!
Mark, I believe these are a Taiwan product.

dayum, that's a lathe and a half. It's interesting how the proportions look so similar to smaller lathes (12x36 for example) that it does look big until you realise that's a 12" chuck!

that'll really speed up the bigger work, that's for sure
 
Beautiful machine.

Congratulations Mike!

Congrats, Mike! Looks to be in great shape.

If that is a 12" chuck then that lathe must be huge!

So, did those skates work?
