Viceroy TDS in sad condition

Post by dazz » Sun 24 Feb , 2008 9:43 am

This is an old Viceroy Lathe in very sad condition. Seen on a New Zealand on-line auction Feb 2008.

It's clearly had a hard life with many parts missing including the tailstock and the half-nuts.

It's a fully metric so it is probably a lot younger than mine, but the years have not been kind to this example.

This is the only other Viceroy I have seen in New Zealand. I am glad I don't own it.

Is that a pile of swarf in the back - or teeth :?

Hello

Another old Viceroy on auction in New Zealand.
It looks like it is fitted with a very basic gear box.
It probably has a set of change wheels included.
