Description
Massive Axelson 20 Heavy Duty Manual Engine Lathe with 23-5/8" swing and 115" centers.
This Axelson 20 is a legendary piece of American-built iron from Los Angeles. The previous owner operated his shop for 30 years and, upon retirement and the sale of his building in 2024, moved this lathe to a facility in the Eugene, OR area. It was the last remaining piece of a well-maintained shop and has been stored indoors since the move. While presently not under power, it was a functional part of the previous shop's inventory until the owner's retirement.
