Another Australian make, it seems.

I forgot the names/models of the two Stubby lathes sold in the USA a number of years ago. The one shown in this ad is the smaller of the two. But it still has like a 30" swing with the movable bed moved. And around 30" or so length. The bigger Stubby has something like a 44" swing with the bed moved and about the same length. Think both had 2hp motors. Or maybe the bigger Stubby had 3hp. Not sure. If its Natchez Mississippi then it likely came from John Jordan. He was a Stubby dealer and lived/turned in Tennessee I think. I saw John Jordan do a demonstration on a Stubby lathe back in the mid 1990s or early 2000s. Can't remember exactly when it was. Pretty sure Stubby is no longer a going concern now. But the highest of reputation and quality at the time they operated. Yes Australian.

If someone is looking for a Stubby S750 I am selling mine. I am in the SF Bay area. GREAT price for one of the very best lathes you can buy. It is posted on Craigslist, but scammers are spamming me. I do not feel comfortable about selling anything that way.

If you are a real turner and know anything about wood lathes and are interested in my S750 post here!
