Title: Tool shops near Newcastle, Australia
Post by: teegee on January 29, 2014, 10:35:53 PM

Hey all,

I'll be in Newcastle and Sydney end of February, and I'm wondering if anyone here knows of a decent hardware/machine/tooling shops around there. Looking for milling cutters, reamers, etc.  My google-fu is too weak, it seems.
Cheers!

In Sydney, try Hare and Forbes for machinery: http://www.machineryhouse.com.au/Home

For cutters, reamers etc., CTC Tools in Hong Kong: http://www.ctctools.biz/servlet/StoreFront

 These are in the Sydney area
http://moyles.com.au
http://mcjing.com.au
I haven't dealt with Mcjings, but they appear to have plenty of gear. Mick Moyle is a nice bloke & very knowledgeable.
