Lathe for sale.

Sadly, due to a house move, my Drummond M-Type lathe has to go.

I Bought it early last year, and have made a nice large bench for it to be mounted to, as well as a frame built in to the bench to hold the crossshaft and motor assembly.

The lathe could ideally do with a lick of paint, but mechanically it runs just fine.

Included in the sale are:
The lathe itself
The Motor
The Cross-shaft
The Bench and built in drip/chip tray
A Faceplate
A 4 Jaw Chuck
Many ancillaries that i never got around to identifying
A Set of gears (For screwcutting etc)
Many different cutting tools (The brazed tip variety mainly)
A Dewhurst rotary switch (needs wiring up to the lathe, to enable the motor to spin forwards and backwards)
The Switchbox (Currently attached to the lathe but doesn't work, only to switch on, needs to be switched off at the mains (not ideal, but a simple job)

This lathe originates from 1926, identified by the serial number on the bed. It also appears to be the longer bed variety, this lathe is fairly sizeable!

I'm after offers of around £275 for everything.

Please note, the multi-coloured drawers in the pictures under the bench are not included, unless you want to make an offer on them too!

The item is located near Spalding, South Lincolnshire, and will need to be collected. May squeeze in to a LARGE Estate car, but i'm not guaranteeing!
