One province and about 24 hrs driving, unless the Alberta clipper arrives tonight, west of you. Unfortunately don’t have the time to take my Osborn apart to get measurements right now. I’ve seen a few Clarksons, but I’ve never used one of their drill pointers, so not sure I’m much help. I’ll...

Pilling on a little to the theme of the day, but it is made in Canada ;-) May I present the Osborn (shameless copy) version of the Clarkson drill grinding attachment. Beefier and fun to use. Need to make a method better than offhand grinding bigger mt tapered drills on a belt grinder. Mostly...

Sheldon, I’m with 140Mower on this. Suggest keeping the Mysore Kirloskar. It’s a good lathe and the pics you showed suggest this one is well looked after. My only quibbles are, as mentioned, it’s too low for comfort- easily rectified by mounting on blocks, and second iirc, the spindle is L00-...
