The earliest-known Joinville appears, apart from the flat rear bedway, to have been a straightforward copy of a 1940 South bend "Workshop" lathe

One slight difference was the provision of angled oilers on the front face of the headstock. These, as on the South Bend, filled sumps beneath the bearings from which oil was lifted through wicks.
