12 forum posts | Hi guys, I have just bought( not Delivered yet) a machine tool re thread title. I was wondering if any of you lads have, or have had said machine? I bought it as I feel it will be an interesting little addition to my tooling. As a new forum member( I have lurked a little), I will attempt to post pictures on its arrival, if that would be of interest to anyone ? Cheers, Garry Edited By Garry Bell on 29/01/2019 17:07:12 |

12 forum posts | This is a lovely looking old machine, I have nothing against Chinese machines,as I have never owned one so I cant judge( I have read a little about them) I like machines from an era when cast iron was used because it gave a machine, mass and rigidity.These machines give more than a working lifetimes service, and then some, and still survive for people like us to adopt them and look after them in their later years.
