I just picked up a 46-450 lathe for 500 $. The woman's husband had died and she did not know much about the lathe. It has 2 banjos one works really like you would expect it to the other moves front to back in a jerky motion and can't see why it does not move smoothly like the other. The tailstock slowly slips backward with steb centers or drilling. I put the second banjo behind the tailstock to keep it from slipping. Any advise how to fix these problems let me know. He had a reversing switch on the 1 hp single phase motor and his wife said he had colored lights to tell him if he was going forward or in reverse but took them off for some reason and placed aluminum panels. I will not be using the reverse feature and would not need a light to tell me if going in reverse. He had a outboard attachment on the headstock I took off as I have another lathe for turning bowels, will just be using this for spindle turning. Everything else works fine.FullSizeRender.jpg
