War Dept. lathe

The strangest pieces of WW2 junk turn up in the oddest of places . This lathe for instance , found on a local farm here . Id say a Lend Lease lathe .
Built 4/43 sent here for munitions work . It was offered for free, I gave it to a friend |
A bit of an oddity Mike. Is it of use or just a curiosity?

Here's another you won't have space for, too. Must surely have contributed to the War Effort:

It's been on ebay for ages . Yes it would have been involved in war work . The seller will be lucky if he gets the scrap price for it . These large machines are just not practical , nobody wants them . I think he will have to pay somebody to cart it away ! Maybe a railway restoration group but they would want it for nothing . |
