A problem encountered with wood lathes is that they frequently require longer beds, different fixed center heights of their headstocks above the plane of the bed, and bowl turning attachments which are located on the bed or alternatively on the other side of the headstock. This invention provides a lathe (10) having a headstock base (11) separate from the headstock (12), a bowl turning attachment (13) which can be located either on the bed (14) or on the other end of the headstock (12). The bed (14) is provided with alignment apertures (40) (dowel holes) so that it can be bolted to the headstock base (11) the tail end of the bed having alignment apertures (40) so that another bed section can be secured to it or in the alternative, the bowl turning attachment (13) can be secured to it thereby in each instance increasing bed length, and all corresponding alignment apertures (40) which extend longitudinally are co-axial, and the assembly is modular. |
