Hi Jon sorry about very poor photo quality - the flash seemed to obsecure some detail and torch seemed too dark. I have included two photos and you can just about figure everything out by using both. I will try to sort someting better at the weekend. The gear lever needs to be moved while running. I...

Hi I have recently bought a TDS 1/1 GB and I have noticed that I have a changewheel missing. The set is from A To G. I have the letter E missing but I have 2 F`s. Its a ex school machine and the missing gear probably ended up on another lathe that now has a F missing! Anyway the cogs I have are: A =...

Hi Dazz

I could pack and post but would prefer collection.

Still up for grabs.

Hi I have recently bought a TDS 1 GB lathe and I`m converting it to run via a inverter as its 3 phase. I am removing the interlocks etc and I have the original front panel with the forward/reverse switch etc. which is free to anyone who wants to collect it. I could consider posting at cost but would...
