    Default Aussie made machine tools..

    A year and a half ago I started a thread on another forum asking about Australian made machine tools..It still gets the odd post but it would be nice to see some more pictures...I understand a few people here have Mars lathes which seem to be a bit of a rarity so if you have photos of Aussie made lathe's or mill's or grinder's or have anything to contribute could you please post over in this thread here -->> http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb...ad.php?t=76577

    Also if you have an interest in pictures of tools and such a great site to kill some time on is this government photo archive http://www.pictureaustralia.org/

    No Matt they are just pictures I have "borrowed" off the internet...If I had the money (multi, multi millions so I could retire) I would like to hunt down some in good order and buy them for history's sake..
