Found this old lathe outside a machine shop in Downieville, California. The ID plate dates back to the 1800's. I would guess it was used to fix mining equipment. I liked the setting with the graying lumber of the building and the red rust on the lathe. I think the green weeds added a bit of texture as well. The workshop was water powered at one time.
