Ways are sloped like Hembrug but unlike Hembrug sloped towards the back.

Wow one of the things that I think is very unusual was two sets of ways 1 for carriage one for tail stock and steady rest

One of the modern hard turning machines or one of the AI Hembrug manual lathes??

Here is one peeking over my right shoulder.
It has one of the largest tailstock I've seen except for a Niles 90".
