AJAX Milling Machines Identification Pictures
Ajax, based for a long time on the outskirts of Manchester, England, were not manufacturers but importers and distributors of a wide range of less expensive machine tools. Items factored included milling machines ranging from simple hand-operated horizontal types through a number of popular Bridgeport Series 1 clones to ordinary but massively-built vertical and horizontal types. Slotting machines, shapers, metal saws, lathes drills and doubled-ended grinders were also offered in a confusing variety of styles and sizes. Operation Manuals and Parts Lists are available. Email for details.
