It doesn’t look much different in size to this:

I know where my money would go.

Would there be much difference between this and the Sedgwick 571? Looking at the Sedgwick the prices are closer to £500.

I can’t comment specifically, though someone else might. But when buying machines I tend try not to be too focused on one brand or model, but on the features/capability I need, together with location/viability of getting it to my workshop.

Sedgwick looks slightly more modern, condition is everything when buying second hand.

Thanks for the tip, ended up bidding on it and won it for £100, thinks thats a pretty good result.

I have a Multico K1 floor standing that I want to sell along with 16 chisels. Small footprint and very sturdy. Mounted on base plate with castors for easy moving. £250. You would need to collect or arrange transport from torquay. Base plate is 400 w x 500 d.

thanks but its a bit far for me.
