Kity 660 Wood Lathe Restoration || DIY || French Coast Workshop

I’ve had this 40 yo wood lathe that I had to restore for a while, and I finally had time to do so! It was not really damaged, I mainly had to clean it, remove the old paint and put a fresh coat on. I just need to find a motor for it now, since I don’t have any.
⬇️More info⬇️
I hope to find a decent motor soon enough and test it by making a rolling pin or something !

Thanks very helpful…..

J'ai travaillé chez Electroli au début de ma carrière pendant 3 années. Quelle belle entreprise, très bon matos. Dommage que cela c'est arrêté.

En effet, les machines sont simples dans leur construction, mais bien construites et avec des matériaux qui sont robustes, pour du travail par un amateur. 40 ans plus tard, elles tournent toujours au top !

Hi there, what’s the kitty green colour called? Great video

In France, you can find it under the "vert jade" name (Hammerite makes it)
