When down visiting my pal in Fraserburgh, I had the chance to visit the Men-in-Sheds of which he is a Member. They recently had a donation of an old [very] wood-turning lathe which is missing the Black & Decker drill which is used to drive it. The chuck had to be removed and the drive 'dog' screwed in its place. Apparently it's a smaller unit than the old orange drill, one of which I [and others in @The_Yellow_Ardvark here] have. This is what they have..
Any help or leads to where they might acquire the old drill/motive part would be greatly appreciated.
I suggested that fitting a suitable motor would get it running, but they don't have the means to manufacture the appropriate brackets, gears etc which would be needed.
