Martin jones Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 I'm on the lookout for a rough rounding channelling machine good money waiting for a usable machine. I dont have 40k for a new one, my WH&B no6 just wont play ball. Based in kent but willing to travel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 I scrapped a Standard one about 6 months ago, superb machine, still have the manual for it, I would guess circa 1960. Just to latr I am afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elfman Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 the company i worked for had one coupled up with an fs stitcher in the new factory managers view it was obsolete so he had it cut off and skipped big mistake ,made sure it did not happen to the fs ,standards knew that stitcher well it was nickname the beast because of its size quite a few would not use it as it scared them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
