Don,

As stated, the compound, "useless" 4 jaw, steady rest and face plate are
included, just not pictured, those are "standard equipment" with the machine
and I figured anyone who was interested in this lathe knew what they looked
like from the Enco/Jet/Grizzly web sites.. I was more interested in
picturing all the extra tooling.

I have threaded on this machine and trust me, that compound is such a piece
of s!@# you are better off plunging straight in off that "stout" 4 way than
trying to use the compound.

It is the 9x20 import lathe sold by Enco, Jet, Grizzly, Harbor Freight
etc.
It was manufactured in 1988 and is in excellent shape.

It comes with it's original parts manual, 3 jaw chuck, 4 jaw chuck (which
is
pretty useless), face plate, steady rest, compound tool holder and
optional
cabinet stand and work light.

I have replaced the compound with a VERY stout 4 way mounted directly on
the
crossslide, trust me you'll never put the compound back on.

Hmm ... have you ever done any threading on this machine? I
would want a compound when threading to allow the flank angle infeed
instead of straight in infeed.

And the photos don't seem to include the compound, which I do
include in the list of parts, and which is not on the cross-slide. Nor
do they include the "useless" 4-jaw chuck, face plate, and steady rest.

Not that it really matters to me -- I don't think that I'm
anywhere close enough to pick it up, even if I wanted it. But it might
matter to those who are close enough.

Good Luck,
DoN.
