Adept Lathe Accessories

[Anorak Bob]

A while back I posted some photos of a Super Adept lathe accompanied by most of its accessories - https://www.woodworkforums.com/showth...39#post1617339 and then a few weeks ago a forum member contacted me with a request for some photos and measurements of the bitty angle plate and steady rest. Well, I produced a sketch of the items and took a number of photos only to find out that it wasn't the steady that was of interest but the tiny hand rest. So today I drew up the rest. Now, given that these items are pretty thin on the ground and even if the interest in them is thinner I thought I would post the documentation here in case someone somewhere might be keen to augment his accessory collection. Who knows?

Edit ... The 3/16" BSW thread shown on the hand rest body casting is incorrect. It is 1/4" BSW.

I like your attitude, Bob.
Who knows what info might be useful to someone?
Well done.

Hi BT,
I'm lucky to have a similar one, & it a bit to late to check it out now, but I will.

I'm almost certain mine does not have the Screw Cutter on it.
I have 2 Chucks, the same as yours. I saw one at the Model Engineering Show at Monash Uni, & copied all the Info about it. Must have taken me 30 mins.

Bought it at a Deceased Estate, nobody was very interested, so I bought it for $61. Had it a few years now, & I'm a " Gunna", as I'm always going to get it going.
Have a Sewing Machine Motor & all, but ???.
