I have another project.
I need this like I need another Hole in my head
I have had my Eye on this Lathe for several years.
The man that I purchased this from, I was really fond of growing up.
The growing up part is (Debatable): lol:
He has collected Cars and trucks and lathes and Milling machines for years: metal:
He had this lathe tucked inside his Service Station thinking his Son would use it.
Well he finally put it out front in a Mile Long Yar-d Sal-E.
So it is Mine now.
It is a Logan Brand lathe.
I have a New Haven lathe (Year maybe1890)
And a 10F Atlas/Craftsman lathe.
Now I have a Logan in progress

Change Gears were rusted then put in a Coffee (Plastic) Can with oil
This helped because they would have pitted if He had not took the time to do this.
There was a Carriage bolt holding these together.

I use Oil Eater to remove the Used engine oil coating.
I put them in a Stainless-Steel cooking pot I got in a Yard sale deal.
