Hello all.

I am new to the world of machining as well as this forum.
recently i picked up a new to me lathe with which i need help identifying.

the lathe was picked up here in alberta canada, it wears a Watson MFG. chuck and a Hobart bros tail stock. serial number L405. it obviously is missing a few pieces but i hope to one day make it a working hobby lathe.

any help with this is much appreciated .

thanks both of you. it does seem i will be making the top gear drive and cover for the lathe. I am also considering the posibility of step pulley drive which would forego the top drive entirely. i dont want to alter the lathe with any permanent modifications that wouldnt fit the era. any suggestions ?
