I have been looking for information on an old Craftsman wood lathe, (auction for $3.00). I cannot find any model number. Most parts have part numbers cast into them. I have disassembled it to see exactly what I have vs need. Wonder if anyone can help me with a few issues?
I am looking for:
any manual that may have come with the lathe (no luck on vintagemachinery.org),
the tail stock clamp, part L2-7, someone used a hunk of steel plate instead,
the correct tool rest, part number unknown, may be 9-333,
the head stock base, part L2-2, part of it broke out, another one would be nice but not absolutely necessary.
What motor would you advise, hp, rpm, clockwise rotation, etc?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ed
