Holbrook Minor Lathe converted to CNC was created by andypugh
The Holbrook Minor is a rather fancy small toolroom lathe from the 1960s

That looks nice !
I need something that size since the small one i have is to weak for some spindle parts i make. Am thinking of building one from scratch.

Great work Andy, welcome to the "I used to have a useless 3 in 1 machine" club. After replacing mine with a new 13" Chinese lathe and a separate mill, I am very envious of your Holbrook. What a beautiful machine!

Glad you have added CNC to it so you can continue to support noobs like me!
