Atlas F-Series 10" Vintage 1930's

[GregV]

Hello,
I acquired a few years back the above described lathe. I inherited it from a great uncle that passed away. This lathe sat in his basement for years before it moved to my garage. I am getting ready to pack up my home for a move and have decided to part with this vintage machine. I know nothing about using a lathe or what the value may or may not be. I do know that the lathe still works and I have a manual that is copyrighted 1937. I was going to list this lathe on ebay this morning until I discovered how old it was, I then starting to do some snooping on line. I came across this site and figured maybe you guys could help me figure out what to do with this lathe. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I took a few pictures this morning I could post if anybody so desires.Thanks for any guidance you may give.

As for what to do with it... you can do most anything with a good lathe!
