Yes, Thats what it was called. I bought one from Sears back maybe about 1970 and I played with it right after I got it home. It was a neat little rig, I turned out some nice figured spindles that had spirals that you could NOT produce on a regular lathe. But I was only about 16 at the time and had a lot of interrest going at the time and after I made a few spindles on it,, I pushed it back in the corner and figured I would get back to it later,,, hahaha,, still got it but still have not gotten back to it yet. But if you come up with a project that needs some interresting spindles, that could be just the tool you might want to use. Sears stopped selling the Crafter after a few years and I thought I read some place not too long ago, they were thinking of trying to market it again,, I am not sure if they ever did or not, though. I have seen them turn up on EBAY once in a while and I ran across a web site once that delt with owners and their discusion groups.
