I added a new old lathe to my lathe lineup for the new shop. It is a old 18" cone head Bradford lathe. It's dirty and shows to be in halfway decent shape. I hope so, this would give me the swing needed to bore out brake drums and face off brake rotors when needed. It's under a tarp for now until it can be unloaded into the new shop building.
She's a beast to be sure but I am certain that you will have no problem putting her to good use!
