Some Schaublin 70 photos - out of the paint shop

[measuretwice]

I've a penchant for these small Swiss machine tools.  This 3 of 4 Schaublin 70's (one is a basket case in need of reconditioning which will be an interesting project) and I just finished painting this one.  #2 has also just finished being painted and #1 didn't need it (will try to ad photos at some point).  I'll probably scale back to two, I'm in deep with this old iron disease.

I thought you guys would get a kick out of it.  I didn't bother painting the drive and motor, getting tired of painting.  Paint is PPG line 7 enamel, RAL 7031 applied with an airbrush

That is a nice lathe and good clear photos. I know some of the swiss watch schools used Schaublin lathes, don't know the model type.

Such a nice lathe, I hope I will get one someday
