I got this, neglected but sort of working and with tailstock mod that will need replacing/reverting at some stage - machine was chock full of plastic swarf ribbons & shards, maybe the tailstock extension mod was to make giant dilldoos..Pink plastic mostly.
Pretty grotty & rusty, but most of it is surface.
I've stripped down to a point, motor, gearbox, etc, was thinking to remove bed and screw but think I can get desired working result without having to.
Bed done with fine scotch bright and ACF, took some time.
Stripped chucks, crossslides and a lot more etc, cleaned, gentle rust removal, bagged in ACF where needed, not been too diligent on notes/photos so should be a good jigsaw going back, but I have the diags and one I have been through before so should be ok.
Fair bit to do before assembly - Cheers Chris
