It's taken me long enough but finally done, well I need a little more tweaking here & there, and a few more attachments but here it is. I built an oil dauber for it & wheel handle for the top slide until I can get an original, I didn't like the one that was on it, I think it was from a Shirline. I re-stamped the model #, Scott said my lathe was a model 1920-1, the -1 being the levered tail stock, the gear box was originally on a model 922, I also was trying to match the colors of the nobs for the handle ends & insides of the wheel handles so I painted them with black first & while still wet, put a light coat of burgundy, it's pretty close.
Now I just have to learn how to run it. Well I still have to get it wired up, I've got 3ph to my shop, just not wired in, Hoping to get that done in the next couple of weeks.
