Hi all,
I have the opportunity to get a very old Leyland and Barlow lathe for free. Apart from the fact it is very dirty and needs a good clean up it apparently is in good condition. I am not really that skilled in lathe maintenance and am interested in getting a manual for it. I would only use it for small jobs at this stage however who knows once you get involved. I have some limited experience in operating a lathe but that was a more modern lathe and it was about 16 years ago. Does anyone know what age this lathe is likely to be?
Thank you.
