    Default Old lathe.

    Hoping someone might come around and give my lathe a look over.

    She's an oldy an has a 1/2 HP motor. It has three bearing spindles / shafts that are spaced across a mounting plank ( well aged KD ) in a straight line and the frame rod threaded trough to connect them. I imagine the lathe is incomplete.
    Motor works. I've not tried yet. I have some little crappy chisels and tool rests ( x3 )

    Woodturning is something I've not ever started on. I'd like to learn more though.

    Happy to offer something for your costs in travel and some timbers I have that you may like. Or I'll work for it as a barter.

    Send a Pm if you can help.

    Thanks.....Tony.
    Don't pass them by! Be daring and caring!

    Dampen their misery....sit with them and talk a little.

    Buy them something to eat and a tram fare to a local mission.
    I'm so lucky that I've somewhere to live and have family support.
