Nice lathe. Good work

[@EngineerSteve]

Thanks! I just finished the new spindle for this machine. The original spindle, as seen in the video, dated from 1939 and did not allow for any serious turning work.

Were there pieces missing when you got this Tyzac lathe?

Unfortunately there were some pieces missing, there are still some hurdles to overcome before it is in fully working condition again.
