Advance lathe, looks like maybe a 12x36”

I think it’s lathe-selling season in BC, if the current crop is any indication

I love these safety symbols. 75 levers & gears & belts & rotating chucks & feed rods & swarf.... to have a bad day on any typical metal lathe.
But be extra mindful of back handing the pointy tail stock center LOL

You know that somebody had to skewer their hand at some point for them to put that warning label there...
 
Oh I missed the other on headstock side. So we're covered end to end LOL

Anyway, stout looking lathe. Hope it finds a happy home.

Or the Health & Safety officer found some new stickers. Took us three months of arguing before we convinced Officer Useless that we shouldn‘t be wearing gloves when running the lathes, and wearing a loose high-vis vest around rotating lathe chucks was also a bad idea.
 
OK one more before bed time & its back to used lathes I swear.

And having cut the back of my hand on the actual tool - would need a mighty small label there! (Three stitches later I haven't made that mistake again)
