Russ,
Nice work! I always enjoy seeing restorations, particularly of older woodworking equipment. You did a great job again. Also, thanks for educating me a bit more on the Mark 2 and its history...

Re: My Newly Restored Mark 2
Something I neglected to mention about the Mark 2 is that since the Way Tubes are shorter the maximum length for the Lathe is 28" as opposed to 34" for the Mark 5 according to the brochures. Without the belt cover on and with the belt/pulleys set for the lowest speed I can move the Headstock over enough to get about 30" of actual length.
