Thank You Mr Poole , Yes , you are correct ..I have just checked the lathe and the bearing housing is cast with the bed . This is the first time I have studied the lathe . It is in running condition . I shall try to attach pictures . Could You please explain the procedure for uploading pictures ? I have just replied to Your email with pictures attached as I cannot upload them to the site ?
Thank You in advance, Steve..

Hello Members , I have just registered for this very interesting site . mainly due to My interest in all things mechanical & in particular in the hope of help & guidance in recomissioning My "Bonds Maximus" lathe ? Apparently this is a "Portass" model , one of the headstock bearing housings has broken at some stage and been repaired by welding ..I am hoping to eother find a replacement or have a new one machined please ? I am a complete novice , never having used a lathe but have had this one for many years & would love to see it working again .
Thank You , Steve .. |
