Pultra 17/70 (the larger of the two standard models) capstan lathe. Complete with a bed-mounted, indexing capstan unit and a cut-off slide, a high-precision, collet-mounted Burnerd ring-scroll 3-jaw chuck, 11 wire collets, 4 step-up collets and a cone collet. Driven by a high-quality Newton Tesla 3-phase to single-phase inverter to give an infinitely variable speed drive. The Inverter cost over £400. I'm happy to separate the lathe from the inverter and its motor (the lathe would just need a 1/4 or 1/3-hp single-phase motor). The lathe for £475 and the inverter for £250. 
The lathe has been used for micro precision machining on critical components and is very accurate - the only reason for selling is that I'm retired.
