Ummm. you got me.....

The base part is 1in sq EN1, then 1/2 in base plate about 3in sq, then the disc is about 3 in dia from 1/2 in plate from memory...

I'll try and take some measurements if you really want to know......

Very nice piece of kit John - is that a ball-turning handle sticking out of the side of it....?
Cheers!

Ade,

The handle is for turning the table as opposed to a geared version that we are used to seeing...

Built for machining small parts like connecting rods for loco wheels where a small radius is needed...

Ah, that is a handy size!  :thumbup:

The figures you gave gives the info necessary to get the proportions.
