Hi there constructors
I don't know if anyone is looking for a reasonably priced, variable speed, small lathe but one has recently come onto the market called the C-O.
It is sold by Arc Eurotrade and appears to be well ahead of the Unimat 4 and less than half the price. All the accessories for the Unimat 4 also fit this new machine and vice versa. If you need accessories for your Unmiat, this is the place to look.
There is a website specially for this new lathe
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/C-O_Lathe/ Call Ketan or Allan for further information.
http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/I have no connection with Arc Eurotrade except as a satsfied customer when purchasing other material from them.
All the best
