Re: My Lot 2 Lathe Identification photos etc

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

So Bryan you seem to have the oldest Dalton known of.? Serial number 25 is owned by Jim Veres.? I also? have an early Lot 2 that¡¯s serial number 36.? I believe there is another very early one out there also but right now don¡¯t remember the serial number.? If you look at the one photo of the back of the bed you see a rather odd bolt pattern just bellow the head stock.? The very early Lot 2 lathes came with a rather unique horizontal countershaft that bolted to? these features on the bed. The first picture is what Jim¡¯s lathe looks like today.?

Subject: [DaltonLathes] My Lot 2 Lathe Identification photos etc

I¡¯ve previously shown photo(s) of my Lathe, just a general front view but I'm now loading 4 more detailed photos of my Lathe, one identifies my lathe as a Lot 2, Serial No 23 as shown on the end of Lathe Bed. The other photos are of the Lathe End Gears, the Back Gears and a general Rear view of the Lathe from the end of the Lathe Bed. Anyway as far as I can tell after slowly turning all the Gears by hand it appears that they are all in tact, with no chipped or broken teeth. As you can see the Lathe could do with cleaning up and painting to look in far more presentable state, what would you recommend for this (a cleaning aid to bring it back to look like new condition if possible).
