    I do not know. Maybe for accessories? Lubrication access? Maybe to adjust half nuts? In any case, the pics on the lathes.co.uk site show exactly the same holes:

    They say its a 1920 to 1930 model, and one of the last made by Britannia.

    Ray pointed out a lathe in another thread but there was also a T&C mis-labelled there too.

    Here is something you do not see very often... Real scraping marks on a second hand machine being sold... Look at the 4th, 5th and 6th photo's.. the top of the table.. The rebuild mentioned in the ad was actually done... The price is in fairy land though in today's CNC world..

    One of the first of what is likely to turn into a flood. This is going to be sad over the next few years.

    If anyone is particularly interested in something at that auction it is one suburb over from me, I can do my best to take photos and look things over. I can also probably collect & hold small items that fit in the boot of a car.

    It's not far from my place if someone needs it held or mailed.

    If I'd known you were interested we could have teamed up on a time share planer. Of course, we would have had to find somewhere around half way between Adelaide and Canberra to keep it though.
