Thanks! That was quick to help answer my question. So what I'm looking at is a dominion 13 mk1. I would have to say it's a master as the one I'm looking at has a longer bed.

I have the opportunity to pick up a dominion made by colchester 13" lathe. Are there any differences between the brand names? Also what is the difference between a student and a master? What do they typically sell for? The seller wants 2700 it requires a bit of rewiring and some tooling included.
