I wonder if any one can enlighten me to the make or origin of a metal turning lathe I recently aquired. It is a bench top type with 3-4 ft bed, the only name I can find on it is "THE GREAT SCOT". It has a 6" scroll chuck 3 jaw, cross and compound slides. 3 speed flat belt drive with high, low speed option and fwd rev. gearing for the power feed. I would love to obtain any info at all on this device.
