| I don't have a price in mind for any of the items below, but, if any of your members are interested, I will listen to sensible offers. I can transport it all, from Oakham, where I live, and help set it up, but would need help to load and unload the big lathe. | |
| Lathe 1. This is a monster bowl-turner (no bed). It has two motors, mechanically linked in parallel, and giving about 4 (yes, four) HP, full power from about 25rpm, and with two final belt drive settings giving 0-500 rpm and 0-800 rpm. It is completely home built (by me), and was designed to be capable of turning a seven-foot wide table top. The motor housing is of welded 1/2" mild steel. It has 2" main bearings on the shaft, and is threaded one and a half inch, 6tpi. Fully set up, with sand in the base box (which is built from 4" right angle steel girder and 1/2" plate), it probably weighs about 350 kg. The lathe has a "footprint" of about 30" X 20". There is a separate, and quite widely adjustable floor standing tool rest stand, which can also be filled with sand for stability. Control of the lathe is via a rotating solenoid switch, which, having a flexible cable, can be mounted wherever is most convenient (I usually clipped it on the tool rest stand, for ease of use). It is not the prettiest piece of equipment, but it is amazingly effective. Using this lathe, I was able to turn "blanks" (actually large lumps of tree trunk) heavier than I could lift unaided. The biggest bowl I ever did was about four feet in diameter. | no picture |
| Lathe 2. This I inherited from my father, and have never used. It is a Record Power machine (I don't know which model), with a four foot twin tube bed, and a throw of about 14". | no picture |
| Wet and dry sharpening grinder. | no picture |
| Turning tools. Quite a variety, mostly from Craft Supplies in Derbyshire, and including the long Exocet (which is a fantastic tool for deep work). | no picture |
| Three chucks, including a big 4-jaw Axminster, with a variety of jaws. | no picture |
| Lots of small tools, bits and pieces, including a stand which might adapt to hold lathe 2 and ancillary stuff. | no picture |
