What a splendid gift. Insert Emoticon with tinge of green.
I fear the lathe I used for the knob Bright was considerably more brutal than that.
However, I do have some little ones, but not anywhere near the same quality, for example the Super Adept - see attached.
Tony Griffiths website has lots of information - see http://www.lathes.co.uk/lorchschmidt/index.html The Section on Watchmakers lathes covers this one. Beware of one thing with Tony's site if you have a slow internet connection, he favours gifs for his pictures and they can take a long time to load.
Do you have the other set of jaws for the chuck?
If anyone feels like chucking one out I'm a pretty good catcher
