Hi,

Iv'e been stumbling over this steady for too long but don't know what its off.

Can anyone recognise what it could be off from the dimensions below

Would be most grateful if you could identify a suitable bed for it to sit on

A photo of it would make it easier to find it's mummy

Sorry,

I thought dimensions would be first but then SHMBO says I always work to rule!

Here's a photo, hope it helps to identify the lonely soul.

It's the wrong way round… the V on an inverted v bed is usually at the front

Could be any 6-inche centre height inverted-v bed lathe of a reasonable age, without one of known parentage to compare with all you could do is try it and see if it fits.

.

But in all other respects it looks the right way round.

… and this might give the clue to its parentage.

Same orientation of the flat and "V" as my Boxford although to bib.

Possibly and old pre war Southbend ??
