Hurculese lathe
« on: April 05, 2011, 04:37:17 PM »
Hi
My mate in spain has a small lathe branded as "hurculese"
It sounds similar to the clark mini lathe
He has managed to strip the plastic drive gears inside the gear box
Do any of you rewcognise these gears as being the same as a clarke lathe
Are spares available






As you can see he has made a propper job of them
Regards
John

Hi John,

They look like standard Sieg C2 and C3 hi/lo speed gears. Compare with items 1207 and 1210 here http://littlemachineshop.com/products/product_category.php?category=5&First=G&Last=G . The Clarke 7x12 is also made by Seig. Your mate's lathe could be a rebadged Real Bull rather than a Sieg, but the gears are interchangeable.

As well as LMS in California, I think Arc Euro, Amadeal and possibly Machine Mart in the UK may stock them. Amadeal sells Real Bulls, and the other two sell Siegs.

I've cut the end off it twice, but it's still too short

Have a look at http://www.arceurotrade.co.uk/Catalogue/Machine-Spares/C3-Mini-Lathe-Spares They ship to Spain and rates are low.
