This lathe is a 9" x 30" Atlas built wood lathe that I tore apart, sandblasted, painted and ended up sending her off to a new home. This was a very good lathe, but I came across a Delta I just had to have and I promissed my wife I would sell this one to offset the cost. It has gone to a new home with a manual copied from the mothership here and a CD full of the refurb photos.

Here is the web page I put up for the full refurb and teardown process.
