Tyme Little Gem - Mini Woodworking Lathe

This is a small woodworking lathe with twist knob variable speed control probably best suited for small work such as pen making, bobbins or similar. It has high speed infinitely variable from 1350 to 5000rpm.

Above bed centre height 2 inches or 50 mm, between headstock and tailstock 11 inches. Between spur centre and dead centre about 8.5 inches. Its mounted on its original baseboard which is 24 x 8 inches.

Due to its small size they are very portable and as only about 200 of these lathes were made, they are sought after and hard to find. Can be sat on a table or workbench - doesn't need a huge workbench!

Only for sale as I no longer use it and its sitting on the shelf, it comes with part of a chuck, make unknown.

Lathe made in Britain

Collection from Burgess Hill but if it helps I may deliver locally.
