Could it be gutta percha? It's the right color, and gutta percha was used in many products we use plastics for today. It seems to have a fibrous makeup, mine does anyway.

Bart the draw bar you mentioned is not custom but is in fact a Dalton original as the red hand wheel was what Dalton used.? Its some kind of composite material.? I was never able to identify what the red hand wheel was made from.? Dennis? Oh and here is another picture of the very rare early countershaft.? Its to bad Dalton did not continue with this design as it worked really well.? AS you see there is an adjustment feature so you can tighten the belt.? Dennis

Hi Bart.? OK that lathe restoration was a collaboration with myself and Dave Kirk of Glen Spay NY.? Dave is a good friend of mine that has picked crated and shipped to me? no less than five lathes and two vintage go karts.? Dave acquired a really nice 9 inch SB and the Dalton became surplus to his needs.? Actually he ran out of space in his little shop after I shipped him a Hardinge BB-4 horizontal mill that I had and sold it to him.? Dave and I have swapped parts many times.? The guy that has the Dalton? now purchased it just to resell and has never used it.? It’s a nice lathe with a few of my installed upgrades like? larger dial rings and such.? Dennis
