Like cars or motorbikes there isn't one perfect lathe, that's why we all keep changing them. You can't compare a Porsche and a Land Rover but they are both the best of there class. If we are talking money no object then it would have to be three ( all with the same spindle thread of course). A...

It looks like the Bandsaw is now sold. Thanks for all the interest. Peter.

Thanks for sorting out the picture 9fingers. Peter.

Good morning and seasons greetings to you all. Well it's Christmas Eve so naturally it's the best time to sell your bandsaw. Seriously though, I have decided to sell my Scheppach 5-4 Bandsaw. It is quite a big beast , 300mm depth of cut and 440mm throat. It has 4 speeds and will take up to a...

Hi, I have a Makita LS1040 which I would be prepared to part with for about £80. It is in perfect working order and while it is a few years old it has had hardly any use. I live in Shropshire and it would probably need collecting. Let me know if your interested. Peter.

I have the Rojek 415 MSP with Tersa knives, I haven't had it long, but so far it has performed well. The fence is not great but they never are. The finish is very good. As you would expect (it's the best priced machine with this capacity) it is a good solid workhorse. Replacement knives aren't...

Just a quick thank you to all those who replied to my post. I'll let you know how I get on. Peter.

Greetings to you all, I've just joined the site and have really enjoyed looking at the work. I think I'll need to get some serious workshop hours in to come up to required standard. I was looking for your help really, I live in Shropshire and was wondering whether any of you could recommend a...
