Sale: DRUMMOND M-type lathe 3.5” x 16” gap-bed, backgeared and screwcutting. A one-user-from-new machine
from the mid 1930s. Lightly used (the factory bed and slide scraping marks are
still clearly visible) and in remarkably fine original condition with
negligible wear and backlash in any part. The first owner’s family say that it was
used to built one telescope and a microscope and part of its survival in such
good order must be because it was originally supplied as a treadle lathe -
converted in 1947 to motor-drive using the new Myford M-type bench countershaft
assembly. At the same time a Myford indexing 4-way toolpost was added (the
original “Norman Patent” unit is included). With the lathe are: the cast-iron
legs and tray, a 4-inch 3-jaw chuck in excellent and accurate condition; a
Burnerd precision ring-scroll 3-inch 3-jaw chuck; a 4-inch steel-bodied 4 jaw
(no backplate but these can be bought from lathes.co.uk); graduated handle to leadscrew end;
thread-dial indicator; a full set of changewheels (14); hand T-rest; faceplate;

To place a
Wanted Advertisement please e-mail your requirements to: adverts@lathes.co.uk
We can't promise that every “Wanted” advertisement will work as well as
the following - but you never know.
I thought you might like to know that the last of my
advertisements has been very successful, as were all the others. This was a
"Wanted Advert" for a Thiel high-speed vertical head, It was only on
your advice that it mentioned I would consider a “complete machine” and, as a
result, the foreman of **** University workshop (who was viewing your site,
looking for a woodturning lathe) spotted my ad and contacted me. His workshop
capacity was being reduced and I am now the proud owner of a fully equipped
Thiel 158 with the rare high-speed head, all the collets, universal table and
special Thiel circular table - all resplendent in unmarked original paint. The
university decided to keep the dividing head but I couldn't grumble as
everything was offered for just £100. I didn't negotiate! There was even a
handbook, spares catalogue and the
original test certificates.
So your site definitely works for both Sales and
Wants - and in my case knocks E-bay out of sight. Thank you for an excellent
service, Regards, Dave Quatermain.
