So my former neighbors were and still are great friends. My friend Bill passed away back in august and his wife wanted me to have his old craftsman lathe. He hadn't used it in years and I was finally able to pick it up last wknd when my wife and I visited her. It was pretty rough looking when I brought it home but I tore it apart and cleaned everything up. Runs great also. I think these were made in 1999? Just thought I'd share.
