I'm hoping someone in the UK can shed some light on an old English machine manufacturer
T. & R. Lees Engineers, Hollinwood (near Manchester)
I've located several of their early patents that indicate the makers were Thomas & Ralph and William Lees (Jr) of Park Foundry, Hollinwood (near Manchester)
I have recently picked up an old spindle moulder (shaper) by this maker and I'm trying to locate further information about the machine (or any of T&R Lees other machines) and its makers.
Table is 2'x2', with a 1" spindle.
Any info at all would be most welcome
Thanks
John
