This old war iron has been sitting neglected in my friend's conditioned garage for ~10 years. Before that it was his grandpa's. Because it had sentimental value he wouldn't "sell" it to me. However when I suggested we move it at least over the winter to somewhere it would be used, my conditioned garage, he said said sure. The thing is I know damn well it will be at my house for the foreseeable future as he already has plans for the space it took up. I started cleaning it up last night but obviously have a long way to go. The power feeds work, the light even worked. It has a 3 Groove V-Pulley on the motor instead of what I think was the more traditional 2 groove.
10L x 4ft w/ taper attachment and collet adapter. 1 3/8" bore. I have to raid his garage and see what other accessories might be laying around because right now it doesn't have a typical chuck and it has a weird rigid setup instead of a compound slide.
Interested on info on the 4-Way tool post that replaced the top slide as well as any suggestions on removing the collet adapter. It unfortunately doesn't have the thread protector so I can't back the nut off to pull it out. Began soaking in PB Blaster last night. I'll need to find a 4 jaw, a steady rest, and a compound at minimum. Hopefully my buddy already has those items in a box somewhere but if not I'll be on the hunt for them on ebay or here.
