[QUOTE="bigbuck, post: 387322, member: 18377"] Thanks Tom, I was so fascinated with watching the lathe run and all the neat Gadgets. I had to hold myself back so I wouldn't seem too interested :) That might effect the purchase price. I wanted to note some other things that it has with it but I'm not sure what it is called any ways it looked like it was a device to hold something from flopping around like a guide of some sort I think I've seen pipe fitters with a tool like this but not as beefy. The tail stock has a center tool in it but he showed me two or three different sizes. It has a clean out pan underneath that slides out to remove metal shavings. It has everything that goes with the compound rest adjusting handle . I have looked at some on Ebay and they are usually bare in the center and this looks to me pretty much ready to go . This one lookes new compared to the pictures on ebay. One thing that i noticed on ebay was the cincinnati lathes spindle speed selector dials on them were very faded and white but this one still lookes baby blue and clean:) I need to measure the "absolute minimum of centers" One last thing he wqs showing me all kinds of tools for it that he has too many to list . He is in his 70's and says he don't need it anymore. He also has one more milling machine that he keeps saying I will need to go with it this equipment is blue and has digital readouts but that's another bridge and some more franklins away. Thanks for your advice and help and if I get it I will post pics of it so you all can see it. That would be the least I could do for all of your help:) Thanks bigBuck [/QUOTE]
