Yes Rond , sometimes it is really difficult to find a supplier. Often with quite a number of materials and equipment sourced from Asia that there is one manufacturer but a whole lot of relabellers.

Using Google brought me to the same American website that Joash found but i don't think that one is relevant as they supply parts and consumables.

There are a number of more specialised search engines, including the one below.

http://www.globalspec.com/

The search engine that may be of most benefit is a Chinese Trade search engine for example:

http://www.asiannet.com/

The trouble then becomes actually finding the item in question because the search engines don't always use terms that we do. (Not surprising given that English is not the first language).

Oh i did find some lathes that look familiar

Maybe we could buy the minimum of 50 units of Model No.: W30-MC1018 (pen lathe) and save money?
