A neat drawer is also fitted to take spare gears and small parts. Incidentally, the lathe is supplied to work either by treadle or mechanical power, as required, and much additional equipment can be obtained for the various models to enable the Owner to carfy out high-class work, even including gear-cutting, with great facility.

Drilling and other operations can also be carried out with the aid of these handy applianees, which sell, with complete equipment, at very reasonable prices, so they should make much appeal to those connected with construction or servicing.
