Hi David Piddington, Sorry to be formal, but due to a computer crash I lost all my old e mails and hence your address. If you see this can you please send your address. Regards and thanks David

Thread: Elliott Omnimill 00

15/03/2010 21:37:52

Having first bought an eastern mill some time ago, I decided to go British when the opportunity to buy an Elliott Omnimill came about. This is a well made British machine fom 1960, but has been well used and needed some care and attention. I live in Portugal and would like some help from UK users to recommend where I can find spare parts. Also user tips would be useful. Hope to hear from some of you out there.

I have recently bought a nice Omnimil, about 25 years old. I am living in Portugal and would like to know if there is a supplier of spare parts for this machine somewhere in the UK.

I started this locomotive some years ago and am 8o% complete. It was designed by David Piddington and drawings and castings were sold through Reeves.They told me few sets had been sold, I was amongst the first. I would be interested to contact anyone who has built or is building this loco to exchange experience.
