I am restoring a Cataract Bench lathe that I just got. Anybody in this group
have any info on this lathe? Is there someone out there with one or know
anyone with one? Thank you.

I've had a number of these, the one currently in my shop
needs to have the headstock bearings replaced and the
spindle hard-chromed and re-ground, but it's still a nice
machine:

Do you have any specific questions?
