Hello

I am a keen ship modeler and found this forum through looking for solutions to issues with my MC900 lathe.
Use the lathe to Turn down fine masts, yards and spars for my period ships.
Have a Instruction manual but really looking for a workshop manual as the spindle pulleys have fallen to pieces.
Also had issues with sticky speed controller getting harder and harder to operate.

Looked at some of your old threads and a lot of ideas there so will carry on regardless.

I live in Perth so if there are any other ship modelers out there say hello.
