I have been given an Edgewick lathe ,all I have to do is move it from
the premises, and get it back home 320klm away.
It was given to me by a very good friend who had plans to set up a samll
machine shop ,but has decided to pursue other business opportunities .

Also got a floor standing mill thrown in on the deal , but not sure of
the make ,all I know it's a universal mill with a tilting head and
single phase motor .( maybe a bridgeport wont know until I see it.)
I've got about eight weeks to get my shite into a pile and organize a
truck and some lifting gear .

So my question is does anyone have any experience with the Edgewick
lathes? I beleive that they were manufactured by Herbert or had some
association with that company.

Any info would be appreciated.
