just wondering if any one might by any chance still have the cog set for this machine

Hello Richard,

I have the imperial version of this lathe/mill with a full set of gears. I don't know if the metric version uses the same gear set but i assume not. Do you just want to know what sizes are in the set?

Best wishes

Steve

Hi guys sorry to dig up an old thread but I've also recently acquired one of these but it's missing the gear set has a poor belt fitted and I can't find any other info except for the info added earlier on in the post

[Steven CorstonParticipant @stevencorston14096]

Hello Martyn. From the manual the belts are 1.5 x 83 x10 for the lathe and 1.5 x 70 x 10 for the milling head. The only place that I found them was Banggood. The originals were steel belts but I got rubber ones, much cheaper.

The milling head belt was far too tight on mine, I got round this by making a new pully with one tooth less.

Let me know if you want further information on this machine.
