... running at a mere 1MHz (as they did in those days), and the maximum feed rate was only 5"/min. Which didn't matter for the precision toolmaking work we were doing, but would have been hopeless as a production machine. It was in full-time daily use for about 15 years. It's currently installed on a farm in Shropshire, but hasn't been used for several years. About 10 years after the photo was taken, it made most of the tooling for the 7mm Hunslet loco kit: 2_172235_490000000.jpg I don't know why Len took the photo.

If the wheels have become rusty, I suggest running them against a folded piece of very fine abrasive paper (Wet-or-dry paper, from car body repair shops) which has been lightly moistened with thin oil. Wipe away any removed rust particles frequently.
