I believe that the Nova OT equipment has not been available for several years. I've looked sporadically. Woodcraft has most of the manual as a pdf.

OT = Ornamental Turner device. Sold a while back from Teknatool. Allows for repeating patterns to be cut in woodturned items and cal also be used to cut threads (with the additional kit). Sadly they were very highly priced and didn't sell very good so Teknatool discontinued them. The rest went on clearance and the tool hoarders picked them up to be stored in their shops without using them! I have one and looks for about a year before finding a fella that was interested in selling his. He told me that he tried to mess with it once, got frustrated and put it back in the box. 10+ years later I bought it!

I haven't used it a ton but did play with it quite a bit in the beginning. If I could ever get some turning time, I might want to use it again.......
