Boley lathes on stands

Stands for boley lathes.

Boley stand g9 with a No. 2B lathe. This lighter precision lathe was driven by a round leather rope from a flywheel running on ball bearing

Boley stand g11 with a backgeared and screwcutting 3L lathe. The flywheel was mounted on ball bearings and the connecting rods had hardened, easily turned and long-lasting bearings. A very similar but lighter stand, the g6 ,was made to carry the much smaller No. 2 plain lathe with round-rope drive. The g6 could also, advised the makers, be employed to carry the No. 3 plain lathe.
