    Hi all,

    First post here. I was gifted a lathe and am hoping I can find a model number and manual for it. Any help appreciated.

    These were around about 30-35 years ago.
    Not a very good lathe.
    One of the biggest problems was keeping the head and tailstock aligned.
    Be ok for spindle work as that is what they were designed to do.

    Thanks Jim, any idea what the model number is?

    I agree, she’s not the finest mule in the stable but it’s all I have. As a beginner it’s though it’s the best lathe I’ve ever had. I’ve made a bunch of metal file and chisel handles on it. I was contemplating turning some small bowls on it, but don’t know the drive shaft size and thread pitch in order to source a cheap faceplate to see if I enjoy that.

    Any help on that would be great.
