Thread: Stand for Hercus 260AT Serial No: 16132

Hi there,

I will soon be the lucky recipient of a Hercus 260AT from a good friend. However, the lathe does not have a stand.

Was wondering if someone in the Perth regional area was willing to sell me a stand for this lathe?

Please let me know - the sooner the better. Would much prefer to have one of the original stands than to have to make one or purchase one made for another lathe from one of the retailers. I am more than happy to clean-up something that does not look too good.

Regards, Pete

Hi Grahame,


Thanks for the good suggestions.

I live in Padbury, Perth WA.

Had no idea the metalwork forum existed but from what I have seen so far I expect to spend some time on it in the future.


Regards, Pete
