Good evening fellas.
I just scored a beautiful old monarch lathe. 12” swing, 5’ bed. The casting has E 90 cast into it. The bed has E lot No 157 machine 2 on one rail and 14.8 on the other. I’m having a bit of trouble finding information on the old girl. I figure she was made around WW1 and things were a bit different then. If anyone has any information or knowledge about such things I’d be in your debt if you’d share it with me.
