Fun with lathes and accessories

You got to appreciate the contrast between my 15” Clausing Colchester and the little Craftsman 109.
I believe that’s a MT 0? Vs. a MT4 live center.
The steady rest was introduced today. It fits perfect.

Yep, I had the same impressions going from my 10” AXA Logan to the 14” CXA Takisawa. It feels pretty good.

Is that little lathe the model with the planetary geared spindle pulley?

Oh you bet.
It took me a while to figure it out. I'm still not sure how to get it locked in/out.
