Works in progress include a new lathe stand, a headstock dividing attachment using GHT's VDH components. The square aluminium hand wheels will be replaced with cast iron round section hand wheels and some ball handles have to be made. The feedscrew dials although graduated require numbering, a job once a universal pillar tool is completed. When all the work on the lathe is complete, everything will be stripped down and receive a new coat of paint. In the intervening years since this article was written, the clutch and other modifications have worked very well. I purchased a second later version 920 Lathe and completed the same additions and modifications, with the exception of the Tumbler reverse.
