What a ripper small lathe Bob perfect for pen related turning looks like the gears etc for cutting threads , very complete unit I was expecting a mini mini lathe like watchmakers use at the speed of sound, prefer your and the other one shown earlier.

Kind regards Peter.:thumbs:

You make oversize pens I see Alex. The ANU here had one to make parts for their homopolar Generator in Nuclear Physics the operator had to sit on a platform to operate it.They did preliminary Atom work about 50 yrs ago, disbanded now.:thumbs:

Kind regards Peter.
