Sounds like you got a hell of a deal,that machine looks
like new.I'm kind of curious,if the lathe has a geared
head for spindle speed changes where are the usual dial/
lever controls? Is this function now handled by the CNC
controler? Also,whats that gizmoid that looks like a big
tool post?
P.S. I hope you don't ruin the lino on the floor.
