For Sale: A pair of unused André Bechler Swiss "Simplex" Gear and Pinion Engines. Priced for sale as a pair - but would split. The two machines were originally obtained still with their manufacturer's packing grease. One was commissioned by having a professionally-made motorised stand made, with pulleys and electrical equipment. That machine was cleaned and overhauled in preparation for the semi-automated production of horological (watch) pinions. The second machine still has all its protective grease in place. Both machines have been kept in a dry, indoor workshop - although the first has a slight bloom of oxidation on some non-critical surfaces; neither has been used, although the mounted machine has been run and tested in place. There's an extensive set of ancillary equipment included: division plates, an instruction/service book, and many manufacturer-supplied technical drawings. There are a couple of useful videos about the Simplex on YouTube. The machines appear to have been first sold to an American instrument company (COSA Corporation, New York) in the 1950s, and then later imported into England. £3500 or offers.

Mounted on the maker's stand with the original and rather unusual "compound drive" from a new 1.1 kW single-phase motor with a starter switch.

For Sale: MYFORD SUPER 7B LATHE 3.5" x 19" (serial No. SK160527M) with a screwcutting gearbox, power cross feed and a spindle clutch. Mounted on the maker's cabinet stand with levelling blocks and a deep chip tray. Purchased by me direct from Myford, Nottingham in 1983 or 4. It was once stored unused for ten years between house moves and has been used only for light work on model engineering. I believe this was one of the last Super 7Bs to be sold by Myford and was built entirely 'in-house', i.e. with no dumbing down with imported castings. Accessories include a 4-way toolpost, rear toolpost, catch plate and two face-plates, 3-jaw chuck, 4-jaw chuck, half-inch keyless drill chuck, and a thread-dial indicator. Single-phase motor with factory wiring and a Dewhurst reversing switch. The photographs show the very fine condition although there are a couple of small 'dings' from dropped chuck keys, etc. Other than that, a fair description would be "excellent". Unfortunately, the colour rendition on screen is not perfect, the lathe colour is original and 'as-new'. Buyer collects from Worthing, West Sussex. The lathe and cabinet can be readily dismantled into six or seven more manageable assemblies. All questions will be answered promptly, and any inspection and testing are welcome by appointment. £2750 Pictures of the Myford Super 7B for sale here and details of Super 7 lathes here.

Complete with drilling quill, horological 8mm spindle and ER collet spindle, machine vice and all the necessary tee bolts, allen keys, chuck key, spare drive belt, adjustable 24volt power supply and various other parts. There is a movable and flexible light system also included. The machine comes with a 5C collet indexable headstock that can be driven via a rear pulley to enable turning when mounted on the rear table. Standard 5c collets (not included) of up to 1" can be used for turning or gear cutting, etc. This item is not a substitute for a lathe, but is nevertheless a most useful addition. The main table has a single tee slot, measures 9" x 3.5" and has a 4.5inch. In addition to the screwfeed, there is a lever feed that can be disengaged. The leadscrews are 2mm pitch and have anti-backlash nuts. The spindle can be raised to a height of 9.5". Speeds up to 6500 rpm are achieved via pulley changes and a variable speed controller. The machine is constructed of solid cast iron - in the traditional way - and has a footprint of 9" x 9" x 16" and a weight of approximately 35 kgs. This is a very versatile machine and can be set at almost any position or angle. With the use of the knuckle joint, almost any angle is achievable - many are demonstrated in the photographs. The spindles can be used in either horizontal or vertical mode and most of the attachments used in an off-hand manner - an extended 30mm spigot to facilitate this is included. (this spigot can also be used to extend the various attachments). The photographs should give a clear indication of all aspects of the machine but feel free to call me and ask any questions that you may have. Location Uxbridge West London You are very welcome to view the machine in person. Asking price £3250.

For Sale: Schaublin 102N lathe - a late-model example and mounted on the correct maker's cabinet stand with storage. The bench top measures 150cm x 80cm and the height 85cm. Overall bed length is one metre. The headstock has built-in indexing with four sets of holes: 12, 48, 60 and 100. The lathe comes with an extensive set of accessories: a Schaublin high-speed milling and grinding spindle; 38 metric collets ranging from 1 to 20mm; plus 6 hexagonal bar collets; 6 square bar collets; a 2 Morse taper adapter; dead and live centres; Tripan SMD quick change toolpost (with ten-micron repeatability claimed - which is about right in my experience), and a Pratt Burnerd 100mm BP71 chuck with internal and external jaws. The lathe is powered by the original three-phase motor fitted with a Direct Drives one-to-three phase converter, sine filter and a variable speed controller - this integrates into the Schaublin two-speed forward and reverse switch box and gives a very wide range of infinitely-variable spindle speeds. This is a beautiful lathe to use, the cross-slide is sensitive, taught, and with very little backlash. One feels perfectly confident working on small jobs close to the collets. Occasionally, I have even attached stereo microscopes for ultra-precision work. This lathe is in phenomenally fine condition and has been used only for light horological work Viewing is highly recommended. £9000, with sensible offers considered. £9000 of sensible offers.

For Sale: Lodge & Shipley Lathe circa 1905. Fitted with a full screwcutting and feeds gearbox of the Norton "Quick-change" type, long-T-slotted saddle wings to act as a boring table. For its age this is an exceptionally heavily-built lathe with a deep bed casting, a 8-inch centre height and in fair condition.. Has a 3-jaw chuck, 4-way toolpost, a micrometer-adjustable carriage stop and very strong tailstock. Power drive to the carriage - however I do not know if this works. Fitted with a 230-volt, single-phase 1 .hp. motor; it does run however the motor is reluctant to spin up without help and may be missing the centrifugal switch for the start winding. Has been in the family for around 50 years and I believe it came from one of the railway workshops in Brighton. Hopefully someone can give it a new home. Collection from Ferring, Worthing, West Sussex.£375 or offers. Collection from Ferring, Worthing, West Sussex. Phone: 07973-920208 or email: richard.day@virgin.net .
