I was going to make something similar, but this makes the job much easier, thank you :)
Fergus OMore:
I have the GHT gubbins but the 'Lidl' stand is rather more versatile becuse it can be turned into a horizontal plane -- and fitted on the lathe saddle- but with an electric drill to drill or mill.

For those with GHT's Workshop Techniques book, the Lidl stand can be used in a similar way  to the Jim Batchelor idea which  converted the drilling part of the Universal Pillar Tool onto- in this case , a Myford lathe.

A million years ago ( give or take a couple of days) I wrote about using a wood router as as tool post grinder using a 43mm collar which is pretty standard on such drill things.
