Thread: Help with selling up
21/01/2015 23:59:31

Dear all, due to a dramatic change in my life, I have decided to sell up my complete workshop as a package if possible. I have many tools, taps,dies, Warco lathe and cabinet, Warco mill, and a non running Myford that needs a single phase motor, I have all drawings and part built Marshal 3" T/E pride of the road, I have no time or memory to list everything, but I'm more than happy to let people view my gear offered with a view to a purchase, please contact me .i would suggest I few very strong and capable men are required with special lifting/moving equipment to remove machines from my rather hidden away workshop.

All gears and main drive shafts are finished and fitted, including bearings etc, diff, winding drum, smoke box, chimney smoke box door etc all on and working, boiler made by Bell.

rear wheels rolled and welded, spokes half fitted, rear hubs finished, including hub caps, flywheel completed and fitted, firebox door fitted,

Some flanges and valves fitted.

probably more but its been a long time since I went in the workshop.

i thought everyone could see my profile and see where I was based, maybe being new I need to look into that part, as I thought it was available ?

im in St. Albans Herts .

ps, I just got a call from Graham, asking me to list everything as he has three others waiting for castings, he said he will be happy to supply me what i need and so there's hope I can get all my castings, and just concentrate on getting my project finished.

Hi Bob

i do hope your wrong about Brunell models as I have not bought the cylinder yet

today I have been given a name of someone who may well take on my engine, but I have only a name and no number as yet.

so now my quest involves seeing if Brunell is still trading?

good luck with your project also.

Dear all

i have a part built 3" scale Marshall single cylinder traction engine, and I have no time to complete due to circumstances at home having changed.

The build is to spec, from drawings supplied from Brunell models, please could someone give me details of a good engineer to finish this engine off too the standard it had been started.

any help will be very welcomed indeed.

regards

harvey
