Large Lathe
kuzzu - 26/10/07 at 06:18 PM

Hi All, I am looking for a Harrison or Colchester Lathe, 40 to 50inches between centers,preferably in good condition.
I of course have to travel to the UK to pick it up so I am doing some homework before I come along.
Anyone know of anything?

Cheers.

Don't know for sure but they may be 3 phase ? do you have 3 phase supply in Malta?


kuzzu - 26/10/07 at 06:25 PM

Yep I have 3 phase in my garage, have you found something?


rusty nuts - 26/10/07 at 06:41 PM

No sorry haven't found anything , just didn't know if 3 phase was available in Malta. I did at one stage have a website for used lathes but can't find it at the moment

Might be something here, watch the VAT and buyers premium though.

Try John Allibon at Nobilla tools. He's an ex Colchester tech, and refurbs and stocks quite a lot in an old barn. I get all my Colchester stuff from him.
