I have a circa. 1915 Fay & Scott pattern makers lathe, which I have fully restored; new wicks; all original tooling. Two outboard turning plates and stand. 60" between centers; 24" swing. Please signal interest and I will send several photographs (which are on an i-Pad at present and I don't have a clue about placing them as attachments here...). Cheers.

Its easy to post pictures. Just pick the attach files button below the reply typing area. It would be interesting to see your lathe.

I right-sided your anti-gravity lathe. That's some cool iron!

I'm an 'old-guy' so my computer aptitude is close to zero. Thanks for your help. I'll be sending several additional photographs sometime today together with a statement of provenance. Best wishes, Robert

LOL, no worries. This seems to be a common issue on all kinds of forums. Right side up seems to be a variable term depending on what device took the picture. We were having issues with phone pics for a while, but looks like resolved. Generally speaking, if it looks upright on you computer it will be same here uploaded.

Sir, can you tell me if Sajo 58 is still one of your members? He's not responding to my inquiries. In January 2017, he placed an advertisement in your site's classifieds to sell an Ames Triplex machine lathe. I have an interest as to whether it might still be available. Thus far, no response. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Continuing thanks, Robert

It took far too long and I apologize. Here are the photos.

Any permissible way to provide his email or city location so that might contact him. If your site prohibits this, I understand. Robert

Well ok I pinged him there are messages re his ad but that's it. If he does not respond... @Jwest7788 FYI...
Good morning. I've been diverted by a serious N'orEaster. Eastern Massachusetts is awash with "storm trees down".
I must ask you this - what did you mean by "...@Jwest7788"? Is that you or our illusive friend with the Ames Triplex? Best, Robert
