Well, I've finally updated the website. I've moved things around a bit so that all sold items are on the first page, although due to the time it's taken to compile the new pages, there are a couple of items there that have since sold. I'll be in Brighton three days a week for the next month, so it s...

I missed the original 2015 thread, which would have been around the time I bought this little allwin from Mervyn, which I've had operating down at Brighton until recently. I can confirm that it is a BMCo, which has been 'Wondered' - it has had a Wonders 'roof' added, plus of course the backflash. Fo...

I know this is too late, and of absolutely no use whatsoever, but when I saw the first post, I recognised this gripper as a machine I once owned - it was I who put it in the Coventry auction. As far as I can recall, the mechanism was complete and working, although I think there was one part that cou...

P.S. I see PM is online - perhaps it would be appropriate to make this thread sticky for a while, so that it doesn't get bumped down the list. Just a thought.

I heard this sad news at the weekend - I believe Maurice had been unwell for some time. I first met Maurice back in the 90s, when I was producing allwin spares - he was a good customer! He and Pat were always to be seen at shows such as Copthorne and the various auctions back then. He always support...

Thank you all for your comments and well wishes. This is certainly a sad time for me, not because I have had to close and sell my machines, that was always the plan, but it wasn't supposed to happen yet. It was my intention to close at the end of September, and I was very much looking forward to my ...

Spindle and knob are different metals and I’m unsure if they can be welded The spindle is steel and the knob is cast iron. They can be welded, although probably not a job for an amateur - I don't weld, so can't give any specific advice. However, just be mindful that the heat produced from welding w...
