Hey guys,
I've just been given this bench top lathe by my dad. He purchased it second hand in Adelaide Australia approx. 10 years ago.
He and I both have no idea what it is. There is no marking other than a few stamped numbers in the end of the bed.
It is very old, its had at least 3 coats of paint and looks to of originally been red.
It doesn't have the original motor.
The only accessories that are with it are the 3 jaw chuck, a dead center, and some change gears.
Dad said he doesn't know what the taper in the tailstock is, he thinks its something odd, the morse #2 from his other lathe doesn't fit.
I haven't had a chance to measure anything yet so cant say a whole lot more about it.
Can anyone help me identify it?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
