I settled on a Vertex '0' which takes the Myford chucks and duly placed an order. It has just arrived, literally. Perfect condition and way, way before I had anticipated. With free carriage and considerably cheaper than their nearest rivals service like that should not go unrecognised. So well done Warco I am well pleased and feel others should know too. Regards - Ramon (usual disclaimer)

I made a lantern pinion for a clock and on undoing the chuck it dropped to the bottom and went straight into the body and jammed it in the horizontal mode, no way will it come out, i found it immpossible to dismantle the tool so ihave now got a rotary table of sorts,and have now to replace with a new one. otherwise an excellant tool. Good luck

1655 forum posts 617 photos	Thanks for the warning George - I'm sorry to hear of your predicament., I've been out this evening and did nothing more than unpack it this afternoon so fore warned is fore armed. Having it stuck as you say is a real setback. I shall be careful of this and pass your advice on to friend John who also has one. Regards - Ramon
