Machine Information
Serial Number:	53798
Machine Type:	Lathe
Machine Description:	Model 400 Logan 9" lathe
Owner:	Keith Black
Manufacture Date:	Wish I knew
Notes:	Source=owner’s submission. Owner’s comments: I received a 9" Logan Lathe model 400 from my neighbor as a gift after expressing my interest in hobby machining. It came with "if i'm not mistaken" a 5" 3 jaw chuck that says Logan 436. It also has the tail stock which again "if i"m not mistaken" is a Morse Taper 2. Didn't come with any tooling or extra change gears though and It's in pretty rough shape. By my count there's at least 4 layers/colors of paint. I plan to restore this little lathe to the best of my ability. Starting with de-rusting and paint removal, and trying to find another 72 tooth gear that's not missing any teeth.
