Lathe I bought before I joined

Just looking for the you sucks even though I have owned this for a year or so. Have not even ran it yet lol. Could not pass it up as it was literally at a school less than 1 km from my work. They auctioned 4 of them and I almost bought 2. When I bought my 2000 series Standard Moderns years ago I did buy 2 and kept the best. I must say I love Gov deals. 3 lathes and my mill all came from there and every one a steal! Lathe also came with steady and follow rest. The DRO is what I really wanted though.
