Default I Bought a Metal Lathe

Every now and then when I'm trying to fix or build something I often wish I had a this tool.

One occasion I really wish I had a lathe to make a bolt that I needed plus I thought it would be an interesting thing to have.

Random Facebook status and my mate got in contact saying he has a old one that him and his Dad no longer uses.

Several messages later and I collect it this saturday.



It is an old unit. None of this gearbox to change the speed.
Just 3 different size V belt pulleys for the chuck speed and different size cogs for the auto feed speed.

Its old, solid but for something to learn on and not sure what I'm going to do with it in the future it will do.


Got some extra bits with it as well.
