Nice. I like the older machines. I have a Southbend 10", a Craftsman 6", a Reed 24" and a Wilson and Fuller 20". The Southbend is the only one working but its buried behind many boxes of tractor parts and equipment. The Wilson and Fuller (from 1888) may get donated to a museum because I don't think that I can fix it. I picked up an Atlas shaper last year and hope to restore it this winter. Good Luck, Rick
My fault. If you look at the third photo you posted of the lathes. In this photo the tail stock looks like it is a very streamlined. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. :smilewink:
Finally after around 60 hours of machine work i got the sprockets all done couple more little thing to make then we can start the body work. Hope you guys like pictures!!

BTW, when you or someone else posts to the thread, it moves to the top.
If you look at the listings in the Crawler section, you will see yours is first and it's been viewed by 530 people.
