Yes I just got back from collecting it
I had seen that it was in nottingham but actually it was very close to home only 20 miles so that was a bonus
And wow what a machine size wise
I've had a couple of fobco 1/2 "drills but this is on steroids plus plus
everything is massive
I can pick up a bench fobco1/2" and carry it quite easily but this must be 350kg
we had to lift off the spindle head with a forklift the base weighs perhaps 40kg the column 40 kg the table must be 50kg
even after stripping off everything off the head.... guards/motor etc I can still not lift it so must be 120kg
when i got there we plugged it in and it sounds superb starts with a whoosh and is virtually silent.
I'll post some pics when i start putting it back together after painting it.
Oh and by the way he gave me a vat reciept so I can claim the vat back
I'm Vat reg and I charge 20% on everything I sell business wise whether new or used...thats all I'll say on the matter
Ian
the seller did say he was pleased with what he got for it as dealers had only offered 100 ish for it
