    Default Australian Lathes

    ok it seems im always asking the wrong question so ill delete the last thread and simplify it here

    ok we had a few companies Advance, Hercus, Herbert, Qualos, Macson, Clisby,Nuttall, Purcell, Premo, T.N.C., Veen, Mars, Sheraton, Blackenbury & Austin, Tillico and a few more that are suspected to be ours like...

    ROLFE Page Title

    Keen Page Title

    Brenco Page Title

    we all know that in this day and age its hard to compete with China and that has meant lots of companies have stopped making tools around the world but forgetting all that can anyone say anything about these companies that no longer make tools?

    does anyone know anything about the Tillico company its only mentioned on Tony's site and nothing else
    happy turning
