Hi All,
One of our clients has an old lathe. Based on the research we've done, it appears to be a metal lathe, and it most resembles lathes made under the Atlas or Atlas Craftsman brand. We have not been able to find a brand anywhere on the lathe, although many of the accessories are stamped or embossed with brand names. Our client thinks the lathe is from the 1800s, but it appears to be from the 1930s or later to us. If you can offer any additional information about the lathe, we will appreciate hearing from you.

We just listened to an interesting (and short) podcast on the fate of donated clothing. The podcast offers some useful tips to help your donations get to your intended audience.

If you’re gearing up to clean out your closet this spring, you might be wondering: Where can I donate all these clothes? And: What actually happens to these clothes after I donate them? The Washington Post’s climate solutions team has some answers.
