It has one tooth missing off the bull gear. There are some feed gears available but not a complete set. There will be some tooling but not much. I have some measuring tools I can sweeten the deal with if someone gets close. The lathe is in Bomaderry NSW. I am selling only because I need to machine brake disks and drums for vintage cars and I dont have enough swing, nor does it have the power for this work. Its a handy lathe which turns fairly true. It would suit modeler or amateur who doesnt need all
the bells and whistles. I have fitted a betalon belt to it so the old canvas one has gone to God. I can dismantle partially to load on to trailer or truck if required. I have manpower here. More pics available if you pm me. Lathes.uk has more.
