Re: Any engineers on here
Just had a thought - we have a stand drill, as long as I can clamp it vertically this would do the job wouldn't it

Re: Any engineers on here
I have been looking for the 3 jaw chuck for holding the drill on the lathe and can't find it. We are in the process of refitting our workshop so you are asking at the wrong time or I would have done it for you no problem.
I will speak to one of the lads and see if he knows if we still have the chuck and if either of the lathes still works
