Is that a homemade lathe?
The lathe is a mid 1950's Craftsman along with tools that were bought new by my grandfather. I built the stand from some used boards from a small deck I replaced at the back of my house. It all seems to work well enough for the level of work I do. Clamped to the far end of the lathe base is a hand-cranked grinder for sharpening.
