Thanks

I have one of those. Single phase in very good condition bought off ebay for 450 pounds about a year and a half ago. It had no mitre fence.
So far its been quite good but the rip fence on the straight iron bar is shocking.
Daltons in nottingham seem to be selling agents and you can download the manuals from there and prices.
I thing they are a fairly generic italian style bandsaw. I have read somewhere the italians make alot of bandsaws.
hope that helps.
Mine struggles tensioning anything bigger than 3/4 inch blades

it's worth what someone will pay for it

whilst this may not sound constructive - it reflects reality

+1. Ebay it, or stick it on the 'For Sale' section here, stick a price on it if on here. Shine it up, let people know that they can come and try it out and that you're a time-served cabinet maker (assuming that you are), give a decent description and it'll sell for what it's worth generally (Pretty much always, but don't quote me on it! )
