    That sure brings back some memories for me. I used one very similar to it about 25 years ago, however I believe it was 20" X 120". Good machine, but it did have it's weak points. At certain settings, it would sometimes jump out of gear. Bummer !!!

    What do you know, they predicted the styling of the honda element.

    This one's bigger, 49"x226"

    Well, of course there are much larger lathes. I've operated a few also. But I was talking about the LeBlond.
