Looks very clean. Good lathe and lots of good advice by Logan owners here. Look at the specific mfg area for specific advice. Also the Scott Logan blog on another bat channel.

Good luck with your new lathe but beware....this rabbit hole is deep!

So, you are selling this machine on ebay after fixing it up?

Hey, congrats on the buy! My 820 is two years younger and an upgraded model, but it's a Logan. I did most of its restoration myself, great machine.

Yes, that's the truth. It's a long story .... I got it from my son and fixed it up for him. He decided he didn't want it because it's spindle bore won't handle the rifle barrels he works with. So now I have it in my shop and I don't really have the room for it. I love the sense of nostalgia I get when I work with it but it's larger than my shop has space for.

Yes indeed ... this rabbit hole is deep. But I only get one shot at life and I'm gonna have all the fun I can stuff into each moment.
