Any one seen a Tillico lathe? got some photo's?
The old threads here dont have much though thanks to Trove there's a bit more history available...

William Adams & Co. Ltd. Engineers of 175 Clarence Street, Sydney. Manufacturers of the "Tillico" lathe at their Fountain Street, Alexandra, foundry and factory.

The works are under the supervision of former technical school instructor, Mr. J. E. Tilly, works superintendant. ...the Tillico lathe is entirely his own design.

Lathes UK could probably do with an update..

Yes !!.. good idea, he would obviously appreciate any extra info..I have been searching Trove for info on the T.N.C. lathe or its maker, but to no avail... did find references to Aussie made lathes that i did not see mentioned on his UK site.
