If you take photos upside down with your Iphone, Apple Macs and Ipads will automatically invert them. Windows based browsers will not.

They appear right way up on my Ipad and upside down on my PC.

I wish I had the room and a way to get it I would buy it just because I love lathes. That's my tool.

More like double that.
My 16"x 78 American Pacemaker has 4 (four) V ways. This lathe is very similar to the Pacemaker. The book shows a 16 x 78 pacemaker lathe being in the 7800 lb range. To me it looks like this lathe has 4 V ways but its hard to tell from the pictures and increasing their size quickly makes them blurry.

It does have four v-ways. Very similar to a pacemaker, just older. This machine was built in 1932.
