    Crescent v-14 lathe

    I have come across a crescent V-14 lathe for sale and am interested if anyone has had any experience with this machine. I has a single phase 2 hp motor (I think). I believe that it dates from the 40s. It looks to be built to last forever. Any comments would be appreciated.
