What you have is a Dalton 10 ? inch.? These were under development when the company failed in 1929 we think.? Yours is the third one I have seen.? It would help if you would include your name in your post so I can keep track of who has what especially these rare models.??? So number one what is the size of the threading lead screw.? I am going to guess its 1 inch 8. How I knew it was a 10 inch is the four bolt head stock bearing caps.? This head stock is much like the head stock on the Lot 1 combination machine. Also your picture of the back side of the apron is different than all other Daltons.? The half nuts are wider and the clutch is a bit different.? Other than that it looks l much like a Lot 6 or a Dalton 9 inch. ??What are you missing from the lathe if any?? Dennis

Subject: [DaltonLathes] Confirming this is a Dalton

?

Hello, I've posted pictures on here a couple years ago trying to identify my lathe but didn't succeed. there are no stamped marking on it on the end of the bed as usual. I found one piece behind the apron that says dalton and a couple other pieces with random letters and numbers. I have begun restoring the lathe so I'm once again looking to identify it, it looks comparable to the Dalton lathes that are said to be produced at the end of the companies life and have no stamps on them. looks like there was a round tag on it at one time and was painted grey or white at one time. pictures attached?
