will take some better pics when i can
made in the 80's in australia, i was super stoked to catch this at 1/2 the usual price!
is ex school so has been used "gently"but bears a few battle wounds, the worst being the bent toolpost stud!
lucky for me the place i work at carries whitwoth bolrs or i may never have found a temporary replacement
next up is a clean and adjustment and buying a bunch of tooling
as Maz once said "if you want to make parts buy an new lathe," well i must admit i love tinkering with old shit. my mig is 30+ and i've sunk hours in fixing it my drill press was 27 when i got it and busted!i'm an electrician by trade so motors and controlling them is no problem
looking forward to making metal rounder and smaller!
