Details:
I have been clearing a late friends house and found a small glass lathe, This is a specialised machine for scientific glass blowing, or the restoration of glassware or even repairing rare radio valves! Specifically for joining glass components by fusing or welding the joints with the use of oxy gas burners whist the two components are sychronously rotated between two opposed geared headstocks each with three jaw chuck having the jaws slotted to hold fibre extensions to hold the work. One headtock is sliding to allow length adustment and slight compression to complete the joint. I believe that some art glass artists also use them. The capacity is aboit 4.5" Centre height and a bit over 12" There are a couple of other torches with it. It will need a motor fitting (I probably have one) and a bit of TLC. It is heavy and I have removed the headstocks to bring the bed weight down to 50 Kg. It will need to be collected from South Somerset.
I am loath to scrap it if anyone can make use of it.
Many thanks for looking!
