@Aden Dominic i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Beautifully done. I especially liked the fact that you didn't spend hours with filler and files to get rid of small casting imperfections. In my opinion these little flaws simply add to the character of the tool in question. Great work! As a retired master machinist I enjoy watching these videos of yours.
Hi Mike, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video😊👍you're right, this item looks so much better cleaned up but with the age related marks left in place😊👍
Am glad you did not whip out the body filler and take the character out of it. Don't understand why people remove the casting flaws and make it look so lifeless. Its charm is matched by its simplicity. A beautiful piece of machinery either sitting on a bookshelf or with a little tweaking, able to hold its own as a small precision tool. Thanks for sharing it with us. Awesome restoration!
Great job bringing this adorable little lathe back to life! I really have to appreciate the aesthetics put into the design, these days a small lathe like this would be built on a modular frame.
I am restoring a vintage (1938) south bend 9. So much of the refit to the Wizard is of large benefit by example to best restore as method. South bend has a serial number page, of which the near serial number as record to my unit.(Washington State, US) was as registered UK. Thus, a happy owner across the EU-N. America divide. And where I hope, my particular end use of a lathe might match the craftsmanship shown to the wizard. Well found in original as a tool offered, and absolutely interesting and useful as shown to the restored machine. Thank you for the view to the process. My personal regards, M.
Excellent careful restoration. Video skills showed everything very well. Tool Addict is a great guy. He answers all the comments. He put this beautiful lathe in good hands. 75 years old and very useful once again. Thanks and regards from USA.
Hi Pat, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video😊👍Tool Addict Ben really is a star and this channel wouldn't be half as good without his input, supplying such a wonderful array of rare tools😊👍
Hi John, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, I'm very lucky that Ben never fails to come up with the most interesting items😊👍
That turned out absolutely gorgeous, dude! A fantastic piece to use for years to come! Please keep up this excellent work and videography! You are doing a fantastic job! 🍻🤘💜
Excellent! As with so many of the objects you restore, I find myself wishing those objects were still in production. This lathe would be a welcome addition to any shop.
The wizard was a budget version of the flexispeed which changed names to cowells 90 and is still being made to this day which is a testament to how robust and successful the design is.The Swiss schaublin is the only one I know of to outperform it but be prepared for some "open wallet surgery"😂
Dave I never comment on your videos, but I feel compelled to on this one, not only did I watch it all the way thru, I went back and rewatched it, absolutely top notch,

Qué maravilla; gran trabajo y mi admiración al trabajo y a las herramienta hechas con unos medios muy precarios, con gran precisión y sin electrónica. Felicidades.
Hi Derek, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video. You're right, the Hammerite paint really does make these vintage tools look new again😊👍
Hi Troy, thank you for your great comment, it's so old that this particular lathe does not have any bearings, it just relies on the mating machine faces either being oiled or greased😊👍
Beautiful restoration and a beautiful example of craftsmanship in manufacturing. Pity that most of the finely crafted pieces currently made are priced out of the reach of the mere mortals.
Bridgeport paints there equipment with 2 coats of color paint and 3 coats of clear coat shellac. Great video. Outstanding project of a very small lathe. Clock maker? Needs to make a screw or something.
What's with the rusted key at @ 24:00 ? would it contaminate the newly restored parts? or is that your way to test the blueing process of the nuts? Nice job nonetheless.
Hi SirC, thank you for your kind comment, I'm glad you liked the video😊👍the chuck key had been polished and oiled so there should be no risk of damaging the adjustment screws of the jaws😊👍
I liked your big pencil and the clamp technique using it, lol. I'm restoring some old Craftsman tools from the 40's - a lathe, jointer and jig saw. What were you putting those heated bolts into? Is that oil? I haven't seen that before. You might want to try those silicone plugs for blocking screw holes for painting - they work great. Love that lathe - it's really sweet! Thanks for your time and work on the video!
I bought a micro lathe from eBay auction that's similar to this lathe, not sure if it's an older or newer version but it's very identical. The only problem I have with it is the headstock because it doesn't use a bearing just like this and I'm getting a runout of about 5.5 thou, do you know a way to improve this? Thanks
Hi A Tasty Cloud, thank you so much for your great comment, I have to say that lathes are not my speciality but maybe someone will see this comment and give you the information you need😊👍
Great restoration, but you didn't re fit the nuts on the gib adjustment grub screws on the cross slide and top slides, they are needed to lock the screws in position after the free play has been eliminated.
Hi Peter, thank you for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video. Thank you for the great advice, I'm new to lathes and as it didn't come with the lock nuts I was oblivious to the fact they should have been there, I'll try and rectify that😊👍
If this lathe is anything like mine, the pointed tailstock centre is on a small morse taper and can be removed. A bit fiddly but I managed it with mine. To make it easier to remove in the future I drilled right the way through the threaded part so that I can insert a very small bore rod in from the end so that it can be tapped out.
Hi Gary, thank you so much for your kind comment, I think your idea sounds great, there don't appear to be any bearings in this lathe so some modifications would improve it no end😊👍
Hi Swampbutt, thank you so much for your great comment, I'm so glad you liked the video😊👍keep up the great work on your channel, I'd be great to see your bike in action😊👍
Hi Radek K. thank you for your comment, at that section of the video I'm cleaning and flattening the mating surfaces of the beds and all the parts with touch each other👍
@@restoreandmake I am not talking about flattening before 9:55, this is OK. I am talking about simple cleaning (with metal brush) other parts on granite, not flattening. This is bad for granite. :D Anyway, awesome work! :)
Hi Jamie, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, I'll have to look into your theory, I'm sure I put back everything I removed so maybe it was missing to start with😊👍
Hi Juan, thank you for your great comment, the "turnscrew" is a really lovely little tool and is probably over a 100 years old which makes it really special to use in my restorations😊👍
I have one of these lathes, it’s a later , lane , They also came with a tray that stiffens up the bed , it’s a super little lathe, does anyone know of a site that puts them to work, I’d be very interested in any links
Hi Mark, thank you for your great comment, one of our contributors "mrrgstuff" ruclips.net/channel/UCl_gH6wGEtlJ1zMI3b8YD2g has a video of the lathe in operation, I will be be getting this one working in a future video so watch this space😊👍
Hi Michael, thank you for your comment, the reason for heating the screws and putting them into the oil is to turn them blue/black, if you use this method it gives the screws a nice finish but also helps to prevent rust👍😊
Привет Сергей Василич, спасибо за отличный комментарий, это действительно редкий маленький токарный станок, в мире должно быть всего несколько штук, так как они были сделаны только в течение короткого периода времени👍😊
What a smart little machine, I have long toyed with getting a micro lathe like this or a fuller bed like a Drummond but sadly prices have remained high no doubt with people staying at home and pursuing hobbies...
Hi Ian, thanks for your great comment, it really is a lovely bit of kit, I'm really looking forward to making a video of it in use👍😊keep up the great work on your channel👍😊
Question about the dressing: what was the item that it was done on please? (It looked like a marble pastry or sushi “cutting board” but genuinely not trying to make assumptions) Stay well
Nice work restoring it. Does the main spindle have any bearings? It does not look like it even has bronze bushings which then begs the question: is the spindle still spinning OK without any play? You should hook it up to a motor and belts and show it in action again.
Hi Storm Khan, thank you so much for your kind comment, there weren't any bearing at all, it just relies on the screws being tightened to keep the spindle true, saying that, there didn't seem to be any play in the spindle. I'll be making a video if the lathe in use fairly soon, watch this space👍😊
Hi Deepblu dude, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, keep up the great work on your channel, it'd be great to see more of your motor restorations👍😊
Hi Stanley, thank you so much for your great comment, the bubbling liquid is the penetrating fluid getting hot after being heated by the hot air gun, I use the heat to expand the metal slightly and to make the penetrating fluid less viscous, the penetrating fluid is 50/50 transmission fluid and acetone, we've got the great Scoutcrafter to thank for that👍😊keep up the great work on your channel, your static engine reminds me of the BSA Villiers sloper engine on my lawnmower👍😊
Hi Hassan, thank you for your kind comment, I'm so glad you liked the video, we have a small electric motor that could drive it but in a follow up video we are going to show it working in a very special way👍😊
Hi Frank, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, I personally liked the contrast of the two tone paint scheme but it's always good to hear other opinions on how people would approach the project😊👍keep up the great work on your channel, I especially liked the "my outdoor zoo" video, you're really lucky to have such a wide verity of wildlife on your doorstep😊👍
Very interesting video. I own a couple of these models (including the example on the maker's baseplate shown on lathes.co.uk) and have a few videos on my channel. They are great little machines, but so small as to be frustrating just how long it takes to make anything! 🤔😉. It was very interesting seeing your example come to pieces. I would say that it was in very original condition, except the tool post lever which looks like a later addition. Originally it would have been just an ordinary nut. Its also worth knowing that the pointed centre will come out of the tailstock, though you will probably have to poke it out through the hole in the handle. Looking forward to seeing it working. Thanks 😀 👍
Hi mrrgstuff, thank you ever so much for taking the time to reach out and comment, it was great to hear that the tail stock centre comes out, it looked like a solid machined piece. It's also great to find out you're the owner of the lathe in the picture on the website, I think Ben, Tool Addict, and I are very jealous of the cast base you have and we're on the lookout for one for the follow up video when we get the lathe running😊👍thanks again and keep up the great work on your channel😊👍
@@restoreandmake Thanks 😃👍. Be interesting to see if another cast iron base shows up. Its hard to believe they would have only made one, but I suppose if they didn't sell, any left over from the batch would have been just melted down for scrap. I bought both Wizards in quick succession and the other one is heavily modified, but did come with a lot of accessories which is why I snapped it up at the time. I must really put one or both of them back into working use and should really do some more videos on them. I haven't done it yet, but I always thought the most useful accessory to make would be a spindle thread adapter as its impossible to get accessories which fit the thread thats there (it is a standard BSR thread IIRC). The tapers at both ends are short Morse 0 fitting I think, and I do have a tailstock drill chuck, but I don't think mine was an original accessory. I think it would have come with a pair of centres for between centres turning, and used like this you can take much deeper cuts. Looking forward to seeing more of your one. Thanks again 😀 👍

Hi oneshot_me, thank you so much for your kind comment, great to see you back and I'm really glad you liked the video😊👍
@@restoreandmake You're very welcome!!
Everything was done not only neatly, but also with love.
Only there they still ask for a three-jaw chuck and oil cans.
Привет Valery, большое спасибо за ваш добрый комментарий, я очень рад, что вам понравилось видео😊👍
That's one of the cutest things I've ever seen!
Hi Swampbutt, thank you so much for your great comment, I'm so glad you liked the video😊👍keep up the great work on your channel, I'd be great to see your bike in action😊👍
Nice idea to paint side prisms for main "Support"
WOW, looks brand new.

Harika bir çalışma oldu, tebrikler dostum. Makineyi çalışırken görebilmek isterdim.
👍😊
This is very well done!

One I am don't understand: cleaning parts on flat granite... 9:55
Hi Radek K. thank you for your comment, at that section of the video I'm cleaning and flattening the mating surfaces of the beds and all the parts with touch each other👍
@@restoreandmake I am not talking about flattening before 9:55, this is OK. I am talking about simple cleaning (with metal brush) other parts on granite, not flattening. This is bad for granite. :D Anyway, awesome work! :)
Ótimo trabalho 👏👏
Tool holder?
Very thorough, well done. I love the blue colour. It seems there is a circlip missing behind the leadscrew handwheel?
Hi Jamie, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, I'll have to look into your theory, I'm sure I put back everything I removed so maybe it was missing to start with😊👍
nice little machine,thanks.
Hi Fred, thank you for your kind comment, I'm so glad you liked the video 😊👍
I have got the same, from UK seller, my first lathe ;-) Very nice video. Thanks.
I love that screwdriver/scraper
Hi Juan, thank you for your great comment, the "turnscrew" is a really lovely little tool and is probably over a 100 years old which makes it really special to use in my restorations😊👍
I have one of these lathes, it’s a later , lane ,
They also came with a tray that stiffens up the bed , it’s a super little lathe, does anyone know of a site that puts them to work, I’d be very interested in any links
Hi Mark, thank you for your great comment, one of our contributors "mrrgstuff" ruclips.net/channel/UCl_gH6wGEtlJ1zMI3b8YD2g has a video of the lathe in operation, I will be be getting this one working in a future video so watch this space😊👍
Nice job.
Hi Michael, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, there are plenty more in the pipeline😊👍
Krásná práce,gratuluji!!!
Ahoj Svatopluk Havryš, děkuji moc za milý komentář, jsem opravdu rád, že se ti video líbilo😊👍
Just found your channel and subscribed. Nice work.
Splendid.
Hi Clint, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video😊👍 keep up the great work on your channel👍😊
@@restoreandmake Many thanks.
I hardly watch TV anymore. It doesn't compare to the knowledge shared on YT. Lots of nice people wanting to help others.
Unfortunately, I misunderstand you burn the screws in the pit. How?
Hi Michael, thank you for your comment, the reason for heating the screws and putting them into the oil is to turn them blue/black, if you use this method it gives the screws a nice finish but also helps to prevent rust👍😊
Больше 30 лет токарем работаю,но такого миниатюрного станка никогда не видел!
Привет Сергей Василич, спасибо за отличный комментарий, это действительно редкий маленький токарный станок, в мире должно быть всего несколько штук, так как они были сделаны только в течение короткого периода времени👍😊
What a smart little machine, I have long toyed with getting a micro lathe like this or a fuller bed like a Drummond but sadly prices have remained high no doubt with people staying at home and pursuing hobbies...
Hi Ian, thanks for your great comment, it really is a lovely bit of kit, I'm really looking forward to making a video of it in use👍😊keep up the great work on your channel👍😊
Question about the dressing: what was the item that it was done on please? (It looked like a marble pastry or sushi “cutting board” but genuinely not trying to make assumptions)
Stay well
Hi Max, thank you so much for your great comment, it is as you pointed out a granite chopping board, it's the flattest, smoothest thing I have😊👍
Nice work restoring it. Does the main spindle have any bearings? It does not look like it even has bronze bushings which then begs the question: is the spindle still spinning OK without any play? You should hook it up to a motor and belts and show it in action again.
Hi Storm Khan, thank you so much for your kind comment, there weren't any bearing at all, it just relies on the screws being tightened to keep the spindle true, saying that, there didn't seem to be any play in the spindle. I'll be making a video if the lathe in use fairly soon, watch this space👍😊
참 잘하십니다 손재주가 대단 하십니다 감사합니다
Man that is some kinda cool!
Hi Deepblu dude, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, keep up the great work on your channel, it'd be great to see more of your motor restorations👍😊
Interesting restoration. What was the bubbling action after you placed the clay dam around the grub screw?
Hi Stanley, thank you so much for your great comment, the bubbling liquid is the penetrating fluid getting hot after being heated by the hot air gun, I use the heat to expand the metal slightly and to make the penetrating fluid less viscous, the penetrating fluid is 50/50 transmission fluid and acetone, we've got the great Scoutcrafter to thank for that👍😊keep up the great work on your channel, your static engine reminds me of the BSA Villiers sloper engine on my lawnmower👍😊
Awesome 👍👍💪
Hi LKZ Tube, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video😊👍keep up the great work on your channel😊👍
Wow 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻, awesome job. How big or small a motor would be needed to run it?
Hi Hassan, thank you for your kind comment, I'm so glad you liked the video, we have a small electric motor that could drive it but in a follow up video we are going to show it working in a very special way👍😊
why not remove the dead center from the tailstock barrel?
Fantastic I just subscribed and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos
Very good job.Greetings.
Ahoj Wojciech, děkuji moc za milý komentář, jsem opravdu rád, že se ti video líbilo👍😊
Why not paint the base blue as well? I think it would look better. You did an amazing job restoring it. It was very relaxing watching this video.
Hi Frank, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video, I personally liked the contrast of the two tone paint scheme but it's always good to hear other opinions on how people would approach the project😊👍keep up the great work on your channel, I especially liked the "my outdoor zoo" video, you're really lucky to have such a wide verity of wildlife on your doorstep😊👍
Very interesting video. I own a couple of these models (including the example on the maker's baseplate shown on lathes.co.uk) and have a few videos on my channel. They are great little machines, but so small as to be frustrating just how long it takes to make anything! 🤔😉. It was very interesting seeing your example come to pieces. I would say that it was in very original condition, except the tool post lever which looks like a later addition. Originally it would have been just an ordinary nut. Its also worth knowing that the pointed centre will come out of the tailstock, though you will probably have to poke it out through the hole in the handle. Looking forward to seeing it working. Thanks 😀 👍
Hi mrrgstuff, thank you ever so much for taking the time to reach out and comment, it was great to hear that the tail stock centre comes out, it looked like a solid machined piece. It's also great to find out you're the owner of the lathe in the picture on the website, I think Ben, Tool Addict, and I are very jealous of the cast base you have and we're on the lookout for one for the follow up video when we get the lathe running😊👍thanks again and keep up the great work on your channel😊👍
@@restoreandmake Thanks 😃👍. Be interesting to see if another cast iron base shows up. Its hard to believe they would have only made one, but I suppose if they didn't sell, any left over from the batch would have been just melted down for scrap. I bought both Wizards in quick succession and the other one is heavily modified, but did come with a lot of accessories which is why I snapped it up at the time. I must really put one or both of them back into working use and should really do some more videos on them. I haven't done it yet, but I always thought the most useful accessory to make would be a spindle thread adapter as its impossible to get accessories which fit the thread thats there (it is a standard BSR thread IIRC). The tapers at both ends are short Morse 0 fitting I think, and I do have a tailstock drill chuck, but I don't think mine was an original accessory. I think it would have come with a pair of centres for between centres turning, and used like this you can take much deeper cuts. Looking forward to seeing more of your one. Thanks again 😀 👍
Wonderful. But I would query using your flat plate for scrubbing and cleaning.. :)
Merlin's beard, that came out great!
Hi Kelsey, thank you so much for your kind comment, I'm really glad you liked the video👍😊keep up the awesome work on your channel👍😊
