WTB - Presto - Australia

I’ve lurked this place on and off for over a decade but have never got to the point of purchasing a lathe besides the gakken toy record maker. I’m now at the point realising that I should have bought one when I was first hooked on the idea.

I’m looking for a functioning machine here in Australia, possibly adapted to 45rpm, any points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

If you get this one, I could possibly help you get it rolling via Skype depending on what it needs. It's a well engineered machine and usually fixable. What's it need, Mike?

Hey Aussie0zborn - interested in this also. Have sent a PM but not sure if it was able to be sent as I'm a noob here.
Cheers
