Hi all, I'm thinking of purchasing this lathe, for which the seller is asking $150. Seller is describing it as an antique metal-working lathe, but that doesn't seem quite correct based on the pictures. Would this be perhaps a patternmaker's lathe? And is it an actual complete as-manufactured piece of equipment as originally sold by the company? In some ways, it looks like it might be a home-built assembly of different parts from different lathes. Looking for some input from the folks here who are more knowledgeable on this type of equipment than I am. The name cast into the legs is "F. Blemkin", for which I cannot find any information online.
Thanks, Tom
