arcos:
Looks like Clarke, NuTool and Draper all use the same lathe, branded of course.

Thanks for all the help guys...

Going to go for MT1 as it does seem to be the right size (fingers crossed!)

BrianH:
You can't go far wrong buying something with a 1MT as it can be easily, and cheaply, sleeved up to 2 but sleeving a 2down to 1, while being possible, is rarely attempted because of the lost length and extra possbility of dirt induced wobblies.
All the best
