I think you did good! Definitely worth the money with all of the extras you have there. Did see a little scoring on the ways in one of your pictures. You'll want to fix that later on as you get to know your lathe. Meantime, oil here down and start cutting iron as we call it down here in Texas!
Mobil Vactra #2 is good stuff for the ways. Enco sells it by the gallon. A seller on E-bay sells it by the quart.Now I do have a few Q's regarding lubing gona post on SB forum but if anyone knows here please do chime in. The maint chart tag has classifications of two oils for all the maintaince it shows 100 and 240 - #400) or something like that dos that mean visc range between ? or Please don't beat me up for forgetting Last 15 years I been greasing oiling whatever I can find in cabinet half the crap we gots it better whet than dry .
As far as at home for my new SB I have a bunch of old oils of all kinds however like to just purchase new any recommendations where at at what Grade?
In short cant I just get away with a light spindle oil and than use something else for rest > if so what type and grade Thanks again
Yup, Enco with free shipping and a discount code makes for cheapest way oil and spindle oil in the US delivered to your door. Check out PM as John mentioned, you probably want to pick up some DTE 32 and DTE 68 also. Just off hand most lathes do fine with 32 for spindle, 68 for gear box and Vactra #2 for carriage and ways. I know there are exceptions to that rule, but that does pan out for a lot of lathes.

Like I said Cooks has tons of machines and tooling , he's pretty fair on pricing and he will haggle some or had some sweetener to the pot of goodies. Talk on the phone nope but he will at the shop he's been doing it for about 40 years I think or close. I use to go there about two or three times a month. Could buy taper shank drills in any size for $5 , used tools mics Verniers all kinds , I don't know what he's charging now but I bet it's a fair deal .
