Spinning Ladies

I have just finished re-building it after it was badly damaged many years ago.
I can't imagine the work to create those gear wheels.
So, a POW with some very sharp knives - that must have taken some doing as well.
SP, SPII, SPF, PZ-10, P30, SFX, K110D, istDS, Optio 60, Z-10, H90, RZ10, I-10, f3.5 28mm, f1.8 55mm, f1.4 50mm, f3.5 135mm, f2.5 135mm, f4 50mm Macro, f4.5 80-200 F, f4 35-70, f3.5 28-80, f3.5 35-135, f3.5 18-55, f1.8 31mm Ltd., two Auto 110's, Auto 110 lenses and filters, tubes, bellows, Manfrottos and a sore back.
I think they must have made a lathe of some sort to turn the pillars and wheels. They made these in some quantity as many examples still exist. They either sold them or gave them to people who befriended them. Recently a superb model sold for £23,000 at our local saleroom. So if you see one going cheap, snap it up.
Kind regards, Bob
