Some before and after shots of the Rockwell lathe I picked up on Craig’s
list.
I replaced the bearings, motor, gave it a paint job and built a new base
for it
I’m going to convert it to variable speed at a later date when I can
spare the cash. Gotta build the tool fund up again.
That’s why the switch box is so large. It’s going to house the controls.

Nice job, Kevin...

I had to go back and look at the "before" picture to make sure that your jointer
was behind it... In the 2nd picture it looks like it's part of the lathe..lol
