Comments:
This lathe was sold by the W.B. Rapp Company in Philadelphia, PA. It was sold new to an industrial engine rebuilder also located in Philadelphia, PA. The machine was lightly used in the fuel injection shop until appx 1995. It has sat unused in the building until March 2024 when I received it. It is currently in the process of being cleaned and inspected prior to being returned to service.
