Coronet confusion

[mattcullum]

Hi everyone, i am still lurking and trying to pick up a cheap lathe to get me started, looking around I see a few coronet's for sale. However can anyone tell me the difference between a coronet no1 and a minor? The specs seems to be similar.

Its all very confusing and i can't seem to find the differences on google...

Thanks in advance

matt

have a look here

There is loads of info on coronets.
I think basically the no1 is one of a newer range than the minor and the major.
I have a Major in Gloucester and they are fantastic machines :lol:
