1960 with the 2 handle on the pedestal speed shift.

I bought 2 sheldon lathes today, both are EL 46 P models, these have
the smaller spindle 1-3/4" but come with chucks and face plates. Not
sure what collet these will take. Solid little machines, they seem to
be better built than the Heavy 10 I sold a few months ago. I will take
some pictures in the coming weeks.
