Weird - is that on legs, or on the wheeled table? Why? Bob


It is a Logan 11"er

I have one of it's younger brothers.

The legs you see are not attached to the lathe at the present. They
would be turned 90deg. and attached under the head and tail stocks.
This lathe is a '5 point' system, each leg piece being two points of
floor contact and the fifth being a single leg that supports the
motor. That leg does not seem to appear in the pictures. Maybe
that's why the lathe is sitting on the table/cart with wheels. If
someone is really interested in that lathe the lack of the motor
support should not be a deal breaker. It's little more than a pipe
with a jack screw in one end to adjust the motor height.

Wouldn't mind having that collet closer, grin mine is manual, but it
works!!
