Firstly, let me say that i've looked at EVERY lathe in lathes.co.uk and nothing matches ...

There is NOTHING cast or attached to it that gives any ID.

4.5 inch centre height (does this make it a 9" lathe?) about 30 inches between centres.

Looks a bit South Bend-ish but I really don't know.

Missing the reverse tumbler gear only. Works quite well, a bit worn but I'll see to that ...
