Need help with lathe ID

Recommended Posts

Hello all,
For several years I have owned this lathe that I found at a yard sale. I know it's a Craftsman, but I suspect it my be a re-badged Walker Turner maybe. I have not found much info on it so anything would be appreciated. It has a 3/4"-16 headstock and M1 tapers. I added the motor as it came without when I found it.

 I know it's not much of a lathe, but I would like to get into small bowl turning and such to see if I enjoy it. Any tips on using this little lathe would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
