Wow. What a beauty. I have a 1920's Logan lathe in my garage (same size). Dad has a 12" Southbend with a 6' bed that appears to be the same vintage. I am a huge fan of antique machinery.

My Logan has a built in cover/tensioner over the belt and back gears. It may be a good idea from a safety perspective to cover the belt and back-gears as there is a reason that modern lathes have these gaurds. Oh, used cookie sheets make excellent chip-pans.
