Hi everyone. This is my first thread in my life. This is as well my first Sidney lathe. Came across this on sale on marketplace for an amazing price and I don't know how to date it really. I have done quite a bit of research and haven't found any that looked exactly like this. I do know the rack or the top is aftermarket obviously but I still can't find any that has the carriage and stuff like that that are the exact same. I did see in one of the posts someone talking about the t slots on the cross piece mine has t slots as well and like a groove for locking something in. I don't really know a lot about these machines. I started out with just a little bitty shop task three in one which I also got an amazing deal on from marketplace and soon realized I wanted something way bigger so can someone please help me identify roughly the year of my Sydney lathe I do know it's a 17 inch by I want to say 60. Thanks really love to learn some history of this machine. It is surprisingly in phenomenal shape
