After i get it all cleaned up I will post pictures.
You are right it is a well built lathe, I am going off of what my dad had said about it, I still dont know enough about them to form my own opinion. My dad really seemed to like it and he had run quite a few different lathes in his life. Just by looking at mine it looks pretty rough and I am sure its had a rough life, I think it came from a school, but looks aside apparently it is accurate. Dad did quite a bit of gunsmithing with it so it must be capable of doing good precicion work. Ive also got a Wells-Index mill and a custom made knife hollow grinder my dad made I will put some pics up of all them soon.
