Sorry,I didn't realise,looked interesting for the money.

It was my mill. The buyer was located in Worcester and thought it was a bit too far to come in the snow to collect it. Another time-waster.

I think you'll find that the new owner (well known on here) is very happy with it.

Yes I'm happy with it, only played with it on some lime so far, had a couple of proplems with one of the powerheads, but nothing serious, recoil spring snapped, managed to bend a new hook on it and seems ok now, clutch exploded badly cracking cover, not sure as to why, new clutch assembly and cover needed. Also needs a hexicoil fitting on opposite side cover. I guess its expected with old machines, do you think clutch could have been user error, I.e. different engine speeds from each power head, or just one of those things? The beauty of a spare head came into play. Got a large oak and elm to do so keen for any advice on cause of problem.

Let us know how that mill works out - I picked up one of these types as a trade in that I was going to do with my old 50" GB bar with a ripping chain for around £200+vat - it looks fine. I just need to drill the bar as this is what is needed for it. Will be putting it on ebay but will post a link on here when done.
