Hi Tony. Welcome to the forums.


Interesting lathe. The saddle seems quite wide for the distance between the bed Vs!

(sadly, I can't afford another lathe)

We had one of these in the uni workshop and I loved using it.

Photo orientation problem could be due to holding the camera upside-down when taking the shot?
It can be fixed with a photo editor app.

I liked using a Nuttall at NSW TAFE during a 6 month intro course.
Watching the teacher change speeds at lighting speed, using the clutch and brake, was entertaining.
