Hello

Not sure about the compatibility with the hobbymat but Hemingway do a rear parting off too;l kit in 2 sizes one for Myford type and one for larger size machines. I have used the larger size on my 6″ swing Warco lathe and have been very happy with the results.

When I purchase my Hobbymat Matthew,
such items as the rear tool post were not available from the company
that made the lathe and this, with some other accessories, were
available from Essel Engineering.

Essel’s website states that they still
provide accessories and spares for the machines but do not detail
what. You will need to contact them if you would consider purchasing
one. Their web address is-

If you prefer to make your own, then make
this known on the forum and I will take dimensions and place the drawings on a temporary web site that I use. This would take a few
days and I would then make the address available on this thread. I
could make it a permanent item on my main website but doubt if it
would be that much used.

Hello again Harold.

I’m having trouble with the web address you gave me.google is saying it can’t be found.

Can you help.

Hi Matthew,

I’ve just tried the web address and it works. Just copy it and paste it into the URL line of your browser.

Or click on this link Harolds web link

Thanks Les for pointing Mathew in the
correct direction.

As it is a temporary site I have not
told Google of its existence, they will have to search this page to
find the link when they can then visit mine to know of its existence.
This can take quite a few days, in any case, as the link is not
clickable not sure they will even locate it from this page.

It is always safer to add an address to
the browsers ULR field as Les explains

Time to start metal bashing!

Regards
