OK, he will not take paypal, and the feedbacks are him buying.

Register an account, buy a few 99p items to get some feedback and then your set to go.

I have nothing to gain giving this info, only trying to save others losing out.

As I said before check back in a few days, the account will be gone. Put all his items in your watch list and see.

I am going to stop trying to help now.

Yes, and the Super 7, and the welder. look back in a few days, that one day old account will be deleted.

Sadly the chances of seeing the goods are zero.

I am only trying to stop anyone getting burnt as I have been.

This Boxford lathe item number 383731192237. Look at other items as well.

When the complaints start ebay will remove the account and he wll start again with another account.

Pass the word around and please move to the appropriate page if needed.

There is a scammer on ebay "selling" machine tools. The listings look very convincing, but trust me it's a scam. He always wants payment by BACS and is always located in the north of Scotland.

He offers cash on collection as well to make it more convincing but the chances of being in the same area are pretty remote.

There was someone doing this on homeworkshop I think.

Haha, talk about being blinded by the obvious. Thank you for the best solution.

It's the "interesting" nature of wiring it up that worried me. If you get one will you let us know how fitting it goes please?

What's the collective thoughts on using a switch from ARC Eurotrade C6 lathe?

It is listed in spare parts for the C6 lathe but on the phone he would not commit to it's suitability, although it looks like a drum switch to me. (cannot paste the link for some reason) I could use an additional NRV.

I will just say it's for a Brooke Compton motor as fitted to a Myford ML10, split phase, i.e. no capacitor.

Thanks for reading again.

I would like to replace the Dewhurst on my Myford ML10 to allow easy threading (I am no way an expert here).

I am in North Devon.

I have to go offline now, I will come back tomorrow.

Thanks all.

That would do it if the combined ones are not available any where.

But again my wiring ability is hopeless, I would need simple step by step instructions. Just as well we this forum.

Sillyoldduffer,

I knew about bumping, but not tilting. Thank you.

Martin Cargil,

That may be the way forward, although I would need some help with the wiring. I don't trust myself here.

AdrianR,

I will bear that in mind.

Martin Connelly,

They are no longer available.

Lost me there!!!

Does anyone know of a UK source for modern reversing switches, the sort with a built in NRV.

Chester used to sell them apparently but they are no longer listed on the website.

Wiring instructions would be helpful too.

I am always so pleasantly surprised at the great help and brains on this site, so someone will come up with some thing I'm sure.

Thanks for reading.

A lightening detector it is then.

Thank you for all the contributions, I knew some body here would know.

I did read the company website "about us" page but the corporate, management speak about power transmission and network solutions said a lot about nothing really. I guess I am not their target audience though.

Thanks again, especially Neil.

Ivy.

P.S. I have asked a lot of people I have met walking here and the usual response is "dunno mate".

Does nobody have an enquiring mind any more?

I knew I had come to right place.

I will continue reading tomorrow.

Thanks for the suggestions so far, keep them coming.

Yes

I'm sorry I don't know what R.O.C. is.

As we all know model engineers are the cleverest people around, so....

Can some body tell me what this is?

It has no bearing on a mobile phone signal. It is in the middle of a sizeable forestry plantation in rural Devon, and has been there for donkeys years, some locals said 40 years or more.

I emailed the company, but did not get so much as an acknowledgement. (How rude)

Yours curious and thank you,

Ivy.

Reset the router and all is working again.

Thanks to all that replied to my query.

I have tried Linux/Firefox, Linux/Opera and now Windows 8.1 on a tablet and all I get is the spinning circle that times out after a couple of minutes.

I can get any other site I try no problems, cookies cleared, reset Firefox, switched off and rebooted and still nothing. Is it possible that the router could be the trouble, like a setting has changed, I am clutching at straws now.

I am not very computer literate unfortunately and have exhausted my abilities, I will have to ask for outside help on this one.

Thanks for helping me.
