It's nice to see one of those lathes with a new lease of life, they
are very nice machines.

I wonder if eBay 120464845266 would be any help for the drilling operation?

Hi Andy,

Yes, they are good machines. I stripped off most of the enclosure as it 
is mainly used in manual mode for one-offs. The electronics now run on 
single phase, including the inverter which is powered from a 415V 
transformer. It makes the lights flicker a bit when it winds up to speed :-)

My toolpost isn't compatible with Dixon holders. The machine came with a 
nice set of Dixon holders but a lot of my tooling was too big to fit so 
I fitted the tool post off my old Gate Rigidturn.

If I was doing a lot I would have put the drill in a tool holder but as 
I was only doing 8 I couldn't be bothered.
