Nice little lathe model within its capabilities. I have one, with the original (damaged) 4 jaw chuck.

0 MT in the tailstock, and a bit of a loud planetary gear back-gear. Zamak gears, but certainly up to the work you can do with it. 6" swing.

You can 3D print gears for the various feed speeds.

Yes also sold by sears but NOT an Atlas lathe. It had similarities to the Atlas but was not the same and did not have as good of a reputation as the Atlas. At least that was the consistent information I found before purchasing an Atlas 10-12 years ago.
