First off: I am _not_ the seller, so please refer any questions to the guy who
actually has it: Dick Barbato at 978-356-5181, located in Ipswich, MA. Tell him
"John who bought the bandsaw" sent you.
Anyway, I bought a few tools last week (big 'ol gloat to be posted sooner or
later) and he also had this. It's a Delta Homecraft 11" from the 1940's,
probably a version of the 46-230. Has roller bearings in the headstock,
Walker-Turner motor, homemade stand with steel legs, and includes a lot of
tooling. Faceplates, extra tool rest, centers, and a large set of brand with
chisels. Good condition from what I could see, but I didn't give it a complete
checkup. I toook this photo of it:

He wants $200 for everything. I don't think he's had many bites, so I'm sure
you could get him down a few bucks.

If he'll ship it to me for $200 total, I'l buy it.

That's the same lathe I have - good little lathe, with the amount of stuff
that comes with it, I'd say that's a good deal.
