Do I NEED another CNC Lathe Project ?

Where do you find time to farm?

I hope you get it, for our entertainment :)

Well I decided not to proceed with the Colchester 350 - various reasons but largely  due to the high cost of the faulty bits of the controller.

But today I've committed to another project  pile of junk to try and bring back from the dead  :clap:

It's an early Denford Mirac. I like the Miracs as they are a small foot print machine yet very sturdy and have a slant bed. This one has obviously not been loved in recent years, and from the pictures seems to be in quite a state. I've not seen it in the flesh as it's in Stoke St Michael in Somerset.

Being an early Mirac I suspect it has a PC mother board inside, apparently it runs Windows 98. It may well be a candidate for installing a new controller, but that's all in the future - just need to work out how to shift it the 170 miles home  :bugeye:

RotarySMP:
I think we all appreciate you doing this solely for our entertainment.  Thanks.  :thumbup:

Cheers, Matthew

awemawson:
Thanks chaps  :thumbup:

Collection arranged now for Tuesday 5th Feb - crack of dawn (well actually before dawn !) start  :bugeye:
