Below is the general AI description of these lathes. This one has obviously been repainted. It's a great little lathe which is accurate enough to produce 350mm motorbike wheel spindles to a few thou tolerance. The gibs are adjusted with no play, the cross slide has no backlash. There is a little in the feed screw, but a new half nut is included.


The milling attachment is a useful addition, but honestly only for small jobs, but you knew that.


Bid price is for the lathe, the DRO would be an additional £200 and the coolant pump with magnetic nozzle holder,  another £100.


The additional chucks and some tools and inserts are included as well as the quick change toolpost and 4 toolholders.


I'm only selling as I've been given a slightly bigger lathe and don't have room for both.


Can be seen running.


Collection only and you will need at least 2 people to load it, although it can ge dismantled.
