    Default found a small wood lathe - help ID'ing it?

    G'Day,
    I came across this small wood lathe (minus the bed) and was hoping someone may know more about it...

    it appears that the missing bed is either a solid square section, or a thick walled square tube. The faceplate screws onto the spindle with a normal v thread. The tailstock ram moves via a ribbed wheel, and there appears to be a socket or threaded hole in the ram.

    The only markings on the headstock are RL -180 and the letters EWR. The castings are cast iron or cast steel.

    The face plate is 100mm (4') diameter, and the spindle height is roughly 80mm above the bed.

    Thanks,
    Des

    You might have a bit more luck in the woodturning section of the forum. I’m sure many follow more than one section, but all the turners will go past that section fairly often.
