MACHINE TOOLS & Accessories WANTED
To place a
Wanted Advertisement please e-mail your requirements to: adverts@lathes.co.uk
We can't promise that every “Wanted” advertisement will work as well as
the following - but you never know.
I thought you might like to know that the last of my
advertisements has been very successful, as were all the others. This was a
"Wanted Advert" for a Theil high-speed vertical head, It was only on
your advice that it mentioned I would consider a “complete machine” and, as a
result, the foreman of **** University workshop (who was viewing your site,
looking for a woodturning lathe) spotted my ad and contacted me. His workshop
capacity was being reduced and I am now the proud owner of a fully equipped
Thiel 158 with the rare high-speed head, all the collets, universal table and
special Theil circular table - all resplendent in unmarked original paint. The
university decided to keep the dividing head but I couldn't grumble as
everything was offered for just £100. I didn't negotiate! There was even a
handbook, spares catalogue and original test certificates.
So your site definitely works for both Sales and
Wants - and in my case knocks E-bay out of sight. Thank you for an excellent
service, Regards, Dave Quatermain.
