Springfield Lathe

Ready to head home! The gearcover on the end is normally just set in place, so I removed it to keep it from possibly
bouncing off. The drip tray is strapped down to the left, and note the blocks of wood screwed to the deck in order
to help keep anything from possibly sliding. There was just a little tooling that went with it- a whole three tool blocks
for the tool post (each very rusty and missing parts) a few Armstrong style tool holders, a pretty decent Burnerd 12"
4-jaw chuck, a way-undersized steady rest, some old brazed carbide cutters, and a few other small bits.
Next section: Getting it off the trailer, doing some quick fixes, and firing it up!
