Long-hole boring using a special attachment in the standard tool rest
Compared to attempting the same task on a Chinese-made lathe made of folded tin plate, bowl-turning on a machine as solid as the Graduate is a pleasure - and achieved with a greater degree of safety and comfort as the work responds directly to pressure from the tool instead of flexing away from it
A very rare fitting - the factory-fitted rack-driven carriage with slide rest
Optional lever-action tailstock
45° tilting sanding table:. In conjunction with the mitre rest compound angle faces could be sanded
The Graduate Vari-speed Type GL from the "Graduate Lathe Co. Ltd." This example is fitted with the swan-neck attachment to allow sort, between-centres turning
A typical used Graduate with bowl turning (together with a deep, curved rest) and a sanding table with its large faceplate
