    Have a look here Bob, it has a link to another thread in it as well.

    Could at least give you a lead to the colour.

    Is yours a buzzer only or the homeshop like shown there (Habco made them).

    I assume that Big Shed was referring to a previous thread here on the forum.
    https://www.woodworkforums.com/showth...ghlight=Berens

    However, as China posted in that thread, it probably isn't news.

    Here is an ad for Habco equipment from the West Australian newspaper from 5 May 1948:

    Now that I've seen that Behrens has an H in it.
    There are more threads that come up including this one from 2006 where China asked exactly the same question but with the right spelling.

    Also has a nice offer from johnredl to supply a manual.

    Thanks for the replies, and yes I did post "similar" thread previously, however this thread concerns a buzzer (Jointer) not a home shop
    the 2 Homeshop's have gone to new homes due to the work outgrowing them, I will most likely go with the same grey as the Homeshop.
    The fence is quite roughly machined and contains casting pits this not comparable to Habco's quality this is why I think it may be designed to have a face board attached, I will have a go at posting some pics in the next couple of days
