Hendey 14x6

[Dave Gardener]

Hello, I have a Hendey that unfortunately will not fit in the new workshop so I’ll be selling it soon. I was hoping @hendeyman could tell me more about it! Serial# 23754

The older "gear head". 23754 is in the 1919 1920 range

Thanks @johnoder. From looking at other posts I was pretty sure that was the year range, I’ve just been saying it’s a hundred years old without knowing the exact date. I’m a big fan of the style they put into these older lathes, they don’t have the boring boxy look of newer machines.

Here is the "manual" from those days, though I don't recall if the gear head has a picture or not

I think I have this downloaded somewhere already but it’s always good to have a backup. Thanks!
