I’d love to see that lathe cleaned up properly and lubed properly. It’s a shame it’s so filthy and rusty. Of course it doesn’t work or sound the way it should. I also wonder why that lathe is so low to the floor. It almost looks as though the stand is missing.
That’s a great looking machine, iv a 1/2” Coventry die head here I bought after watching Mr Crispins video Get some oil on that machine and throw an old bed sheet or something over it it’s amazing how it keeps the condensation off 👍🏻
Ryan Walker,
Thanks for making this video, I'm picking one up this week, great to see it in action. 😉👍
Beautiful machine, just needs some tlc!
I’ve got a #3 Herbert. Set up for bar stock. No tooling. Interesting to see these types of machines in action. Thanks.
Don't suppose you want to sell the collects and coventry die head by any chance?
Sorry not selling
