I'm wondering if anyone here could help us properly identify this sliding gap McDougall VDF lathe that we acquired not too long ago. More important for us is if anyone can tell us where to get a manual for it! We believe (but may be wrong) that the lathe dates from the 1950's. We are led to believe that it is a V5 but it is larger than described in some V5 information that we have received. The lathe serial # is 4793. It has a swing capacity of 63" x 108" inside the gap and a swing of 30" x 24.5 feet over the bed.
I have attached a few photos below, attaching photos here is a real PITA! I have 19 photos of it here: https://picasaweb.google.com/106017824673360421736/December292012?authkey=Gv1sRgCL2pla64uucR#
Thanks all.
