Hello Carl,

​I don't know if it is still for sale, but there was a complete ML4 for sale in the Sales/Wanted pages of the forum recently, at a reasonable price for the whole lathe.

It would be worth checking

Don't get an ML2 headstock, unless you enjoy solving puzzles. It has 3 1/8" centre height, whereas the ML4's is 3 1/2".

I do have the remains of a headstock just the casting, but it has been welded and looks iffy plus the rearfixing hole does not line up with my bed ?
