        Not quite sure what the gubbins is for at the left side of the headstock?

        No other bits with it sadly.

        What does the team think? smiley

        Cheers, Martin

          Nice little capstan lathe. Is the "gubbins" part of the stock bar feed mechanism?

            If you have a look at the "http://www.lathes.co.uk/timbrellwright/" site down at the bottom is what looks like an identical machine.

              Is the "gubbins" a mechanism for opening/closing collet jaws?
