Good judgment and to safely operate old machinery. The makers plate on the right hand end of the lathe shows that it has the serial number 029920. Themselves may not meet modern standards. This is an Atlas 10 lathe with the model number TV36 indicating it has taper bearings in the headstock with a vertical countershaft and a 36 bed length. It looks like they machined and adapter/raiser. From my own research, it appears that a previous owner has taken a 10' headstock and mounted it to a bed from an Atlas 12' along with the 12' carriage and tailstock.
