Nice restore. Are you finding that the leg under the head inhibits foot movement?
Not yet, that I've noticed. But now that you mention it, it will probably drive me crazy!
Thanks to all for the complements and encouragement. I'm looking forward to hanging out with you all.

Thanks. For a couple of years my wife's uncle has been telling me he had a lathe he wanted to give me. I always assumed it was a working lathe. She went to visit, and come back with what you see in the first pic.
I've never turned nor rehabbed any old power tool. It became a labor of love, and I am now very glad I followed through.

Very nice job on your lathe, it turned out really nice. I can't wait to turn some wood myself.
Thanks for sharing !
