AH 1218VS LATHE

[MikeO]

Does anyone own one of these?
I need the hole centres of the 4 bolts on the bottom.
I'm trying to make a base out of wood before lathe arrives ready for fixing.
Any help appreciated

Better wait until it arrives not a biggee then spot on.

You could try phoning Axminster. They may be able to help with your enquiry and measurements.

Unfortunately, I have the AC305WL lathe, so the bolt holes would be different to yours. Sorry mate.

Agree - that's what I did when I bought my lathe. The only downside of this approach is that I had to put the lathe in position on my bench, mark the holes, and then put it somewhere else while I drilled pilot holes for the carriage screws that I used to attach the lathe to the bench. So I had to pick it up three times (first to put in into position for measuring, then to put it aside for drilling, and then to restore it to its final position), and the darn thing is heavy!

I did inquire about the overall length so that I could be sure that it would fit on my bench.

800mm x 190mm That measures outside of the hole casings.
