I waited 6 months BUT they arrived last Monday, was a hell of a job getting them in my Basement, the Lathe weighs 236 kgs and the Mill is 168 kgs, In the process of cleaning and tuning in right now. Soooooo looking forward to Making a right old mess lol.

Good for you George. I see happy times ahead, and lots of chips being generated. Enjoy.

Nice! Man, 6 months is a long time to wait for new toys, you've got more patience than me, lol!

Nice machines. Solid looking tables you have them sitting on as well. Have fun.

Just Thought i would add the Price List of what i ordered so people are not wondering. The reason i got all the Extras is it did not affect the Shipping Cost, BUT thats another Story.
By the way, the lathe is a 10 x 30.ish

Does the lathe have powered cross feed?

Does the lathe have powered cross feed?

Yes it does, it also has 15 Metric thread and 9 Imperial as standard in the greabox, it comes with 1 extra cog, and that can change it to an Imperial Lathe, an by changing the configuration of gearss you can cut a lot more threads.

 

[George]

It also has 15 different feed rates.

Weight wise they seem comparable to my 9" Utilathe and RF30 mill/drill (your lathe is a little heavier). What is the table size on the mill?

8 x 30 or 180mm x 700mm

 

[YYCHM]

8 x 30 or 180mm x 700mm

That's a respectable size.... same as my RF30. I can see why getting them in the basement was a challenge
