Update on the machine! It looks really good, have almost everything for it (top guard to cover the spindle cutters) The spindle spins freely, after a bit of tlc I can adjust the speed pullys (need a new belt tho), the fence is spot on after 2 pieces of paper behind one fence Now to get it...

Hi Andrew, L...

The spindle spins smoothly and everything is there that I can see, will have to wire it up and see, the company had a newer i-tech spindle with tilting so what I'm really hoping that the company wanted to upgrade the spindle so just unwired it and pushed it against the wall and left it..... 🤞🤞🤞

I spent 4 times what I paid for the spindle moulder on it all but has to be over 3K's worth of materials

I picked up my bargin £36 wadkin Bursgreen BEL today from a joinery shop that went out of business, I loaded the machine easily enough and the guy said did I want to see the unsold list..... I thought what the hell, while I'm here it makes sense. Nothing on the unsold list really floated my...

The scm t130 I used to use in my old workshop, I used to change the speed often but that was easy enough to do and using a r&f cutter essential as it sounded like a plane taking off lol

I have a cheap clarke lathe that is the same as your Harrison one, a lever to Adjust the speed so the mechanics should be easy enough to work out 🤞 its just if it's missing any parts, like the motor lol I'm hoping the auction company just came in, saw it was all taken apart and disconnected and...

Just got a reply from wadkin Bursgreen and they said they don't have a manual for my spindle, but the more modern non variable (while moving) should be close enough for parts. Not the answer I wanted but will have to get over it

An hour before the end of the auction it went from £50 down to £26 so thought what the hell, I know the parts are not cheap but even if its just a new motor its worth it

Wadkin Bursgreen sell a used one for £3650 with a auto feed so think its worth restoring if its an easy fix lol

That's exactly what I was thinking, will cost more in time to pick it up then the machine, just have to make sure I get everything I can with it lol

Hi Doug71 I have looked at this manual and it's not the same modle as the one I am picking up, iv emailed wadkin and seeing if they can source one. The BEL I'm picking up you can change the speed while it's running so would be a totally different belt system as the one in the manual.

Hi everyone, I am after some advice about the following wadkin Bursgreen BEL Spindle Moulder, I am picking it up tomorrow but it was listed on an liquidation auction site as spares.... and at £35 including all the fees it could be a bargin if its an easy fix (if not a little money pit) the...
