    Default Good supplier of lathe fittings, tools etc.. ?

    I'm about to buy a Sieg C2/200 lathe ( H & F AL-30 ) and even being a rank novice at the game , realise I will need a variety of other items to get under way. Nothing too ambitious initially, or maybe ever ;-)

    Any suggestions and where best to seek it out.

    I live in Bendigo Vic so Melbourne is closest Big Smoke.

    Hi Malfie

    This company

    http://www.assetplant.com/

    is nearby and has a great deal of lathe related equipment.
    I have just purchased some quick change tool post tool carriers from them.The goods are in the mail at the moment.

    They have a great online catalogue and their assistance over the phone has been very good.
