(sorry, i haven't find how to show pictures smaller)

It's good to see these old machines still going strong !

The only fault it has is the motor, it's no enough powerful.

But the steppers motors are good, i've very fast traverse for steppers motors and the accuracy is good too.

Good accuracy, good design and versatile !!

Salut Ant!
tous va bien?
Ooops I have to do English here! (I've met this guy on Usinage.com ;)a french machining forum)
I have a 1.5kw motor here if you want to come and get it...
What have you been making lately other than swarf?

Now I want first chance to buy any Zerocentres that come up for sale.

In first, Merry christmas and happy new year !!

OMG !! A Zerocentre !! It must be very expensive ? no ?

I have recently bought an other cnc lathe (sorry it's not a denford )

It's a Emco compact 5 cnc, i have to remake the electronic from A to Z. A lot of work but it was very cheap !!

(Send me your pictures when you'll have the zerocentre ! )
