I thought I'd post some pictures of my Logan. I got this lathe back in late December and spent about three months completely disassembling, cleaning, stripping, painting and then putting her back together. And I only had a few parts left over.
I didn't get any real good before pictures, but here's a couple:
Those were taken after I had wiped fifty years of grease, oil, grime, swarf and shrapnel off it. Then I started dis-assembly. I did the dis-assembly and degreasing in my unheated garage in January. Then I was able to take it to the basement in pieces where I did the rest in relative comfort.
Here's a shot of the gear train similar to the one above:
And here's a front view:
After these were taken I've added adjustable hockey puck feet and a Phase II QC tool holder. The first real thing I made was a combination carriage stop / dial indicator holder. Then last week I finished an ER-40 collet chuck which I may post in another thread.
Thanks for looking.
