I look at all these restored Daltons with the nice paint jobs and I feel guilty. Its something I've been meaning to do, but I have my lathe in production and it all covered in oil and turnings. Likewise the paint I have for my South Bend has been sitting on the shelf for about 5 years.
Maybe when I retire in 11 years or so, I will find the time.

Welcome to the site. I too was caught off gaurd with the extent that
these machines are restored. As a result my lot 4 is almost finished
looking just like theirs. Again welcome to the group. MIKE
