Logan 1920 Lathe Restoration

[@jasonruch3529]

Nice job!! I just picked up a logan 200 and in the process of bringing it back to its former glory 😊

[@chrisblight6069]

That's a lovely restoration; it's nice to see older machines back to their best and getting used again. I have an old Denham lathe I'm about to start a restoration on so have been busy watching videos like these. Great work.

Hai fatto un ottimo lavoro di restauro complimenti !! Io ho presi il diploma di tornitore nel lontano 1962 e imparai il mestiere con torni del 1915 al 1950, (non erano molto precisi ma molto robusti). Ho 77 anni e lavorare al tornio mi da ancora molta soddisfazione...😀😊

Thank you so much for making this and posting this - I'm about to embark on restoring the 1947 model 820 version of this lathe (the only difference I can see is flat belt instead of a V belt for the spindle drive). I will probably study this frame by frame.

Great restoration 👍🏼 nice lathe to have around for a very long time

Muito bom!Excelente trabalho,parabéns...👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Beautiful work. I'm working on a 1963 Logan 6565 14" and was surprised to see differences, as well as similarities. All cap screws on mine. I really like the color. I went with Massey Ferguson Gray because I didn't want to have to have the original color mixed up. This isn't a full take down because mine was never in a production shop and is in really great condition. Only in two home shops. I make 3. Enjoy.

bravissimo . Stupendo

[@Dodi-nz3fd]

Please provide the address of the dealer/distributor who sells this lathe, in *Indonesia* .

[@josearnaldopinheirodossant7712]

Always a good job ! Congrats . . . About the geometry, did you adjust by yourself ?

[@PhillipandMolly]

I have this exact lathe. Are there places I can have it restored at?

[@alexlitsch8028]

There are businesses out there that do restoration work on things. I don't know any specifically though. I by know means am experienced in doing such a thing. I just dove in and hoped for the best. You really get to better understand the machine by doing the restoration yourself as well.

[@PhillipandMolly]

@@alexlitsch8028 thanks for responding. I think I will search around my area for restoration places. 👍🏻

[@maiknakas]

Hello dear friend .youtuber .. if you have the kindness what liquid do you use to clean the lathe from dirty rust and paint because I want to clean a machine thank you very much .

[@alexlitsch8028]

After scraping, wire wheeling, or otherwise removing paint and grime, I used acetone for final cleaning the bare metal before painting.

[@maiknakas]

@@alexlitsch8028 Thanks my fried

[@பாலன்-ர8த]

Super

[@georgejones404]

Excellent work! I have a similar Logan lathe. Did you have to remove the pullies from the shaft to get the belt on? Thanks!

[@alexlitsch8028]

Yes, I pulled the spindle out most of the way to where I could get the pulleys off then slipped the belt on and reassembled. Fairly easy to do.

[@osirodo6853]

torno hermoso

[@jeffdeluca1153]

Tell me please what paint did you use on this?

[@alexlitsch8028]

I used Sherwin Williams Industrial Enamel tinted "Nighy Owl" grey. I also added 0.60 parts Flood Penetrol to 1 part industrial enamel to thin out the industrial enamel as it is pretty thick otherwise.

[@billgeorge7804]

Please be careful when removing old paint from that era, it often contains lead. Nice restoration though.

[@rickybulao5112]

Mesin bubut tua telah kembali 👍

[@johnwayne2103]

I always love these restoration videos of machinery but I sure hope people wear respirators because paint back then wasn't exactly lead free. All that wire brushing and sanding will ensure you aren't around much longer, If you blow your nose and discover your snot is black and bloody you are not protecting yourself. Please for the love of God USE PPE!

[@alexlitsch8028]

Well said.
