have bits from old lathe of unknown origin that were getting binned at club due to damage.
bed isn't damaged just rusty one of housings that hold spindle is broken off.
got few other bits like leadscrew and pair of flat belt pulley's with it.
also got mt1 tailstock for it.
thinking long term here as no workshop at min but plan is to machine of housings and make new ones and build from there.
worth doing?
any suggestions or ideas welcome.
