This lathe bed extension has come into my possession, it has no makers name or other identifying marks. It is made of cast steel and the bright yellow colour is an obvious clue. I'd be grateful if anyone can identify it, also I'd be happy to sell it to anyone who wants it.

Looks to me like it is for an old Axminster Perform lathe. Model AWSL? It would quite possibly fit a number of Chaiwanese clones as well as the Axminster.
FWIW, it is made of cast iron, not cast steel.

I agree with Duncan, it’s for the old Axminster CCL Perform Lathe. Mine is now 20 plus years old and still in use at my local Men’s Shed.
