Its not 100% original but as long as it works well I'll be satisfied.
Might start seeing about finding "correct handles, etc."
I paid $340.00
Very cool! Nothing wrong with the old industrial Craftsman machines!
There's a lot of things normally done on a mill that you can tackle on your lathe too.
Have fun!
