Many thanks for the work you
did on preparing the ad for my father's lathe. You are worth every penny of
what you charge, and you can't often say that these days. I had 3 inquiries in a
very short time after the ad appeared, and it finally went to a lovely Irish
gentleman who came and picked it up and took it to Dublin.
I also had a very serious inquiry from a West End production company who badly
wanted it as a prop on stage in a soon to be seen production of Faust. However,
my Irishman bought it first. Again many thanks for such a good job. Over 20
enquiries, and sold immediately without any hassle ! Mike
I want to thank
you for all the help you have given me. I could not have sold my machine
without your excellent advice. Terence: Thanks, Tony Inundated with enquiries.
This has to be the best way to sell equipment; I'll be recommending your site
to others who want to sell machinery. Steve : After many enquiries including
the USA and Canada I sold the Myford for the asking price: Thanks for your
help - I will certainly use your site in the future. Alan I
purchased the 6" lathe in the USA from your sales page. Thanks for the
site. I could not find anything in the US or anywhere else as good. R. Wren : I
received 3 phone calls and the Colchester was sold last night to the first
person to view for the full asking price. Jon. Found a very rare Boxford part
thanks to your “Wanted Section” ! : Thank you for identifying all the parts and
listing them. A wonderful service. Janet : Let me take this opportunity to thank you for all
your expert help in compiling the adverts, etc. and in making the selling
experience so pleasurable and trouble free!

hole cutters ( like Thornton) and a very fine miniature dividing table (useful
for e.g. crossing out wheels).
One grub screw needs to be replaced; there is
some play in the spindle of the dividing attachment (thus far compensated by a
brass strip between spindle and the body), and the top slide shows up a few
minor marks which do not interfere with the accuracy of the machine.
Price 1750 GBP. Note : new price at the moment
2600 GBP without the important accessories mentioned under (d) and (e). The
machine is in the Netherlands but at an extra cost (150 GBP) I am happy to
bring it across the Channel (or elsewhere in Europe within 600 km from my
place) Pictures of the Cowells

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 Thiel 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 Thiel 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 the 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.
A note of caution when you are running a “Wanted”
advertisement – scammers are everywhere. If you are offered machines or parts and
the seller cannot send photographs (typically, they claim their ISP is playing
up) or want
paying by “Western Union” transfer (never send money this way to buy
anything) it’s definitely a scam, If in doubt, please refer their reply to me: tony@lathes.co.uk
