Title: Centec 2 Horizontal Milling Machine
Post by: Nigel on August 16, 2013, 12:58:39 PM

Hi All, have recently acquired an early Centec 2 (not a 2A or B).  It has been dismantled and there are possibly some bits missing but I intend to have a go at breathing life back into the little fellow, hence my reason for posting.

I have spent considerable time searching the net and can find very little on or about the Centec 2, the most iformation I can find is here - http://www.lathes.co.uk/centec/index.html .  There is quite a bit of stuff on the 2A's, B's and C's - including operating manuals, but not the Centec 2! 

So was wondering if any of you kind chaps could help?  Ideally, I would like a manual or exploded diagram or even pics and some measurements.  Will post some pics of my little project when I fathom out how to!

Thanks in anticipation of any help offered.

Regards, Nigel

Thanks for the link Tom, don't know how I missed that one! 

Have requested to join the group and now waiting for the reply.  Looks like a site /group that could have all the info I need.
