686 forum posts 18 photos	I realise some may consider the Potts Milling Spindle to be "old hat" nowadays but the rediscovery of a part machined set of castings from dark recesses under the bench have prompted me to want to restart (and perhaps complete) this project. The snag is, although the castings have emerged into daylight no amount of searching has revealed the drawings which I must have had, (How else could I have got this far without them). Long story short. . . has anybody got a set of drawings that I may beg, borrow or steal? I'd even consider an exchange of drinking vouchers if you're not a too heavy a boozer.

521 forum posts 217 photos	Hi Brian, I have a single drawing from Woking precision models circa late 70's It is for the potts attachment you see in my picture with this message. If that's the one you are making send me a P.M. and I'll get it to you. Actually your name is familiar, did I sell you some potts castings for the pedestal design? If so you may still have my email address, have a look. geoff w
