I was looking over this lathe on CL and noticed a couple of things.
Do all bigger Monarch lathes have the saw tooth rack to help lock the tail stock? I've never noticed that before.
The lathe also looks like it's raised. I've seen South Bend lathes raised like this but I'm surprised Monarch used that approach. The ad says it has a 15hp motor.That compound looks fragile sitting up on it's throne.
