Re: Presto Lathe 28N double table rare
US Army brought these double tables to Germany to record Nazi trials after world war II. At this time there were no tape recorders available in the States, AEG started with magnetic tape during the 40ies in Germany. US army took 16" plates back to USA and left machines in Europe. I think they all have been divided into single lathes so it is nearly impossible to find a original double table. Mine has been stored for a long time in Nuremberg, then came to Munich and has been slightly used in a recording studio for some years and stored again. When the studio closed down many years ago, I had the opportunity to buy it as a collectors item. I never used it, because I own a different lathe to work with at Organic Music Studio

I forgot to mention: I will ship everywhere but buyer will have to take care for crating and shipping procedure.
Maybe Ebay says "no shipping" when opening the offer from outside of Germany...

Wow. The lathes from the Nuremberg trials? That's insane. Might wanna talk to the guy who restored the gray audograph which recorded the audio from dealey plaza. But seriously WHAT A SET RIGHT THERE.... I'll just go uh....hit up the cash machine. I'd rather have this than a moldy old scully haha

Hi Thorsten,
By chance are you the same person that has the Manley Scully lathe.
Last time I saw that presto it was in the same room as the M.S Lathe.
I've always been curious where it ended up.

Hi Peter,
you're right, I am. The Manley Lathe is my regular cutting machine, it is now updated and works perfect!

Wow!!!
I must say, I admired that updated Scully and imagine.... I never made the connection between the two.
A thing of beauty and hardwork.
