Good review James. I did a model engineering course a couple of years ago and the workshop was full of big lathes like this.

Nice review!

A typical accessory for this type of lathe is a small cart with either raw or finished parts placed near it. The unit is often mounted on four concrete slabs, two under each "leg"
