Turret Miller now on order------------

[Deleted]

Good Morning everyone !!------------one of the upsides ( not that there's many !) of loosing our "Route 66" Holiday is that I am able to make the choices for my long-awaited new Vertical Miller this year instead of waiting until the London Show next year....... Having recently sold my trusty old NAEROK bench Vert. Miller to a certain "Young chap in the West Midlands", and tried several 2nd hand machines down the years, I had come up with a choice of 2 machines that came in under the £5K "cap" I had imposed...........a) The Chester 830VS at}--- £3,960 PLUS VAT = £4,752--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OR b) The Warco VMC Turret Mill (with additional package as shown )-------

�----- ------------------------------------ I'm pleased to announce that I have now placed a firm order for the package as shown...WARCO have agreed to accept a cheque payment at the Midlands Show this Autumn with a delivery during the early Spring next year !!----H00--Rayy !! What could POSSIBLY go wrong ?

[Roger]

I think that deserves an 'Excellent!', I'm sure you're going to be really happy with it. That's a big, chunky, capable machine.

Nice one Alan. Only wish I had room for a mill that big.

Hope to get a photo of you paying the money over to post on here!!! Big boys DO cry.

Good choice mate. I am sure you and your mill will be very happy together.

Cheers for now. Steve.

Nice one Alan , I can assure you your "old mill" has definitely been put to good use since it moved south east. Its shortly to be put to even more use cutting the teeth on a new small back gear for the headstock spindle on a sick Halifax lathe, having been "spurred on" ( apologies for the pun) by Jim (Boadicea). Regards Paul

I take it that you are not going to pay the full price including VAT in the Autumn with a delivery in Spring ?? I would have thought that a 25% deposit was more than enough.

Hi guys and thanks for the input------------- The long lead time is purely to allow me to re-organise and move heavy items within the workshop whilst continuing with the various jobs still in hand.....Good point about the Z-Axis power feed.. I'll phone them and see what they can be done... PLUS}----I'll see what discounts might be in the offing at the Midlands show........

Hags, thanks for putting your head above the parapet!

Can you just tell us what really swayed you in the final choice - understood it is none of my business and you do not have to justify how you spend your money to anyone. You like what you like and all that.

----------- That's the result of me being 6ft and the parapet is only 5ft 6ins LoL !!------Quite simply the Chester Mill's basic price is about £750 dearer than that of Warco's total shown earlier....and}---Warco's is slightly shorter where my workshop has a very low headroom..( Makes me feel as if in a Submarine's Machinery spaces !!)..I didn't realise that you could ask Warco for a 3-phase and inverter set-up until reading the various posts on this forum !!--------- Well done you guys !!
