Wanted scanned picture of hafco bm-20e turret mill in hare & forbes catalogue
Hi All,
I'm just in the process of buying a Hafco BM-20E Turret Mill and I was wondering if anyone had an old Hare & Forbes Machinery House Catalogue with one in it. If they do could they please scan the page for me, I want to see what the advert shows. Thanks in advance.
Also does anyone have the dimensions for a chip tray for this size of mill ?.All The Best steran50 Stewart

I googled a bit before I bought it and the results that I was getting was models made in the 1990's. The picture of the motor that ESP Machinery sent me on the one I bought has the date as year 2000 something ( I can't make out the last two numbers clearly enough). My oldest Hare & Forbes catalogue is 2007 and theirs no BM20's in it.

Many thanks Snapatap, that gives me some info. It looks like you didn't get much with a mill back in 2004 just the very basics like no vice, no clamp kit etc. It looks like the splash tray/chip tray on the one that I bought has disappeared at some time as the catalogue picture shows it as coming with one. I will make a chip tray for it once I get the mill.
Eskimo the BM22 is similiar, but it's 100kg heavier, has a smaller table 1066mm X 230 (bm-20e 1244 X 230) and it has a 3hp motor.All The Best steran50 Stewart
