Looks like a worthwhile project. Not sure it's worth modifying a top slide to be honest. Originals crop up on ebay fairly often.

Is this the dullest gp this year?

I very much doubt something close to kendal mint cake ever broke.

Hi, should be a good little project. I restored a similar RandA lathe last year, i also had to fabricate the motor mount and countershaft assembly. I actually turned down a v belt pully into a flat belt pulley and to be honest the flat belt drive is very smooth and doesn't slip and has a...
