Face Plate

Collected the Four jaw chuck, fixed 3 point steady and also purchased a face plate, fixed drill bit chuck on a no 1 MT and a n-1 to No 2 MT sleeve, all for £50, tops! The guy also had an original Raglan 3 point fixed steady and two point travelling steady, but as they are rare he wanted a bit much for that - better leave it to the collectors.
I also changed the idler gears yesterday on lathe NO 1 from lathe No 2 - a bit silly, as they are brass, but you loosen the variable speed driven pulley and remove the main lathe shaft (that teh chuck screws on to) in order to get the arm loose, kind of like removing the house roof in order to change a lightbulb.
