Running out of space so selling some machines!
Union Jubilee £400 ono
Machine dates from 1977/78 and is very heavy, 0.75 HP Brooks Gryphon motor recently fitted, with original switch gear and long length of cable.
These were supplied to many schools so if you’re reading this you may have used one a long time ago. Due to the cast iron construction these machines are renowned for their smooth running and no vibration.
Slightly smaller foot print than the Union Graduate but a very capable machine. No printed circuit boards or other stuff to go wrong, this machine will happily run all day
Accessories as shown- long and short tool rests. Out board bowl turning platform.
Rolling centre and drive, tailstock chuck on Morse Taper 2 with chuck key. 4 chisels included
There’s a lever to help with moving belts between pulleys. The bed is in excellent condition
Faceplates for inboard (RH thread) and outboard (LH thread) turn up on eBay regularly, this can make the lathe into a large and powerful disc sander, equally it is possible to get a pigtail on an arbor to allow buffing and polishing wheels to be used
There is a dedicated Facebook group for this machine with a lot of information and expertise to help owners get the best from their lathes, including tips on changing bearings, motors and adding speed controllers.
The Machine quickly splits into 3 large sections for transport or can load complete with engine crane
Collection only on this, we are 20 minutes from the M6 and 12 miles from Scottish Border
Any questions just ask. Thanks
