Had a trip to the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Took a few pics I thought you guys might find amusing.
A lathe from Niles-Bement-Pond Co, Pond Works. And a South Bend 13" for scale :
Some other angles of pics. The headstock is in that red shed. The face plate a little hard to see due to lighting, but I'm figuring 6' to 8' in diameter:
I'll be posting more about the trip and some machines there in this thread:
