Lathe choice at £1000

That looks a solid piece of kit, with good power and plenty of spindle height.
Hope it serves you well and let us see what you do with it

That actually appears to be a very close fit to what the OP was asking for. Such behaviour is very out of keeping for this sort of thread!

And I didn’t even get a thanks for it!

I'll happily thank you for helping out another member. Sadly your link wouldn't allow me to view it. Either gone or required registration to view, but appreciate your effort all the same. Cheers

Oh, that’s strange? Still the OP managed to snag what looked like a nice bit of kit which is the main thing.

Thanks for suggesting it @Vulcan - further away than I would have looked, I think, but not too far for a bargain. To keep the thread useful, and since I still have the tab open,

MC1200F lathe its was also sold as :-

Axminster AVSWL 1200D
Laguna 1847
Grizzly G0733
Sturmer Holzstar DB 1200 amongst others

1200mm between centres
460mm swing over the bed
15oo watt 3 phase motor with inverter
M33 Spindle

Good condition if well used. Probably a little longer than necessary, but it fits in the car, so that isn't a problem. No-name chuck so I might struggle to find new jaws to fit, but the 1.5kW motor is a complete transformation compared with the little lathe.
My first effort using it here https://www.ukworkshop.co.uk/threads/post-a-photo-of-the-last-thing-you-turned.143439/post-1765315

I have the Record Coronet Herald with a swing head and extension on the bed, Its as solid a boulder of granite, had it 5 years so far and still as good as new .

Same here, great balance of size and power. Pushed mine to limit making a 500mm bowl with it swung outside the bed, it coped far better than I did, scared me sh!£less.
