Hi,

My father owned and used a Australian made Herbert Model c

It is now being passed down to my brothers

It is in good condition and seems to have all the attachments etc(as far as I can tell)

Does anybody have any photos/manual/info re this as we would like to reassembly and get it going again

Is it a woodturning or metal turning lathe? I thought Herbert only made matal turning lathes.

This is similiar
Dads is in far better condition - just in bits
Has a planning attachment, cross saw attachment, a face plate for sanding with tilting table and a grinding wheel as well as lathe

If anybody has better photos please post
