I'm new to forums and not well experienced yet, however I need some help. I have a Ward 2C Capstan Lathe that's in perfect condition. We have used it for making metal door hinges. Last usage was about 15 years ago. I have searched the web and found out that this tool has lots of helpful accessories such as die head mills and rolling boxes which I don't have. What I need to know, is it worth investing for accessories for the 2C? Any projects that I can do which allows making some money from this lathe?
Anywhere I can find such accessories other than eBay? And if any have a similar Ward lathe, please if possible let me know what is its current usage.
Appreciate any advice.
