It's a 1945 Craftsman 12x24 and I believe it is actually the deluxe model. It is in really good shape as far as I can tell. All of the factory covers are still in place and there is only one spot on the ways that look like something banged into it once. It's on the edge pretty far toward the tail stock. I am getting into the books that some members here and over at Weapons Guild sent me and also watching videos on YouTube and a couple I got from another guy to figure out what in the world I'm doing with it. So far I am just tickled pink with it.
It has a quick change tool holder and I was wondering what the tool on it currently is meant for. I will attach a picture!
