2742 forum posts 39 photos	Hello, I am compiling a book on screwcutting gearboxes for those lathes most frequently found in our workshops, I would like to include the Smart and Brown A as part of the information. I am looking for an owner who will take the trouble to send me a good quality jpeg photo or two of the gearbox and its data plate. I also will need to know if the leadscrew pitch is 6 or 8 tpi. As the picture will be used by the printers it has to be one that has not been compressed or resized. My email is wood_ y (at) btinternet (dot) com all lower case with no spaces. There is an underscore between the d and y Thank you Brian
