Dydyw I ddim yn siarad Deutch!
Sorry for sowing confusion seeds.
Hansrudoph mentioned this lathe extends to provide a gap bed of double the centre height – but I can't see how.

I'm really sorry, but never in my life did I tell such a thing!!! Like many other people I own more than one lathe, and the one with the extendable bed is in my album together with the pic of its threading table. The name of this lathe is "Gral", not "Habegger". This latter machine also has no raising blocks (as mentioned above), although it would be quite easy to produce such things.
Unfortunately I have no good picture of the extended bed, but will try to rectify this wneb time permits.
Greetings, Hansrudolf
