Vintage Wood Lathe [Restoration] Part 1

This old tool restoration is of an old wood lathe.
This old wood lathe is not a high quality piece of equipment. We have no idea when it was made or what make it is, but it has been in our family for well over 50 years. It has sat unused in a state of disrepair for many years so we thought it might be time to give it a new life. If you can give us any information on the make or actual age we would really appreciate your help. Enjoy the video and don't forget to Like and Subscribe.

Whats the brand and age of this lathe? I just picked up an identical one.

[@vintagemachineworks]

I don't know the make of the lathe, but I have had this lathe for 50 years and it was not new when I got it.

You'll need to get a wood lathe to turn that tailstock handle... wait!

[@vintagemachineworks]

I just found the same lathe and wondering if there is a tail stock with a live roller option or is it just a friction fit?

[@vintagemachineworks]

I've never seen a live center for these, but you could probably adapt one from another lathe. Thanks for watching
