TATA Steel in Port Talbot are also in joint talks, local gossip was that if they didn't get Somerset they would pull the plug on Port Talbot and vice versa!

I use JB and APT, both good. APT has a large selection and gives a good service at a sensible price.

Hi Peter, Have a look at Harrisonlathe.groups.io if you search there is lots of information. The manufacture process is the same for the M250 or M300.

Single eyebolt through the bed is the correct method for lifting, I made a purpose built wheeled dolly to fit and made a path with shuttering ply as required.

Best of luck, Richard

I bought a M250 with a industry quality DRO fitted when new (optical). Had a readout problem after fitting a VFD, this that was completely cured by earthing the readout.

Hi Rick, yes I was, I didn't have the gears when I asked for help but I have them now and it looks like I wont need them anymore the friend I was helping out is looking to add a variable drive now, as hes got the motor and etc and to be honest I was struggling a bit Ive only made about 6 gears in the last 60+ years 2 nylon ones for my lathe and 4 small 40:1 worm gear sets for dividing heads. So thanks for your offer help. Regards Paul

Hi Paul, How did the feed with an extra motor go?

Bought one a few years ago for setting up the pitch on model helicopter rotors, very pleased with it, used more on the mill now!! Not a brand named one, and not expensive, dare I say it China clone!!

Hi Martin,

Welcome, Good beer ,Currywurst, snow and mountains - what else could you ask for!!

And the Deckel factory!!

I'm struggling for height!! Snatch block would't work.

I bought one of these 18 months ago (for more money) and it does exactly what it should, other than the speeds a bit quick for my use. Use it to lift on and off the mill table.

Where are you located? Perhaps somebody could help you out with a small amount until yours arrive?

Why throughout hydraulics do me make use of flow restrictors to slow components down ?

Hi Bob,

I'm still jealous of that tooling you've got for the Deckel, since we corresponded I've got a large table for the dividing head that just about lives on the Alexander,
