Churchill-Redman CUB MKIII Restoration
dawesy:
Looking good. You've done a real nice job there. I also own a churchill redman lathe ( mine seems to be a unknown one as I can't find any info on it. Seems to be a late 30's one)
Most of your carriage looks the same as mine though.
Keep up the good work.

I'd never thought about it before but the apron is "American", as the handwheel is on the left hand and not on the right hand side as normally found on UK lathes...I wonder why it was done like that?
dawesy:
churchill redman started producing some lathes 'under licence' from a company called Jones & Lamson so maybe thats why, my hand wheel is also on the left. quite a good wiki article on churchill redman detailing their rather chequered history
osprey:
How interesting, I never knew that, however the Churchill Co did have it's origins in the USA and started out by importing tools from the USA. I have the centenary book which we received when I was there which outlines the history of the company. Thanks for that bit of info.
Duane:
Fantastic. Just found this. I also own a '54 Cub.
Any advice on the clutch set up, disassembly and reassembly. Thank you.
