UMass Lowell storage room find
I'm graduating Umass lowell this coming week, and I finally got someone to show me the place where they keep all the old equipment. It's quite a sight!
I found this lathe on the very top shelf of this huge cabinet.
Looks to me like a Scully?
There was also a Scully 4 track tape machine in another area of the room, so I'm thinking they might have been used together.

It looks like a Neumann but the bed seems very long and the turntable isn't quite right. Unless it's one of Fairchild's experimental off-board belt driven machines. Might account for the thick pulley under the turntable. The head looks like a Webster that I have, although it also could be a Universal Microphone as well.
