    Default Triton manufacturing closure

    Just browsing through Grays Online and saw that Triton Manufacturing is closing and selling off equipment.
    I guess everything's imported now.

    Default Sorry to see them go

    Far too many have gone that way. I hope to see the day when the Chinese wages have risen enough for us to be able to compete once again in those areas and the good old Australian engineering ability is able to come back.

    Sounds like the table-gear will still be getting made here somewhere...

    I missed that thread. It's good to know all is not lost (yet).
