    I am amazed how good you have that beast looking, better than new, well done. I have certainly enjoyed the journey of the restoration

    Another Wadkin MS.

    It seems that they never wandered far from Mother England, this one is (was) located in Bradford, UK.

    If the motor tag is any indication it's probably not quite the age of Mark's (wallace). This motor is T401959Z vrs T313678Z on Mark's.

    I noticed that one, strange thing is mine was missing its motor and I got one from my motor guy. What are the odds of getting the correct motor. The one on ebay is missing some bits.

    Stella restoration. Are these few and far in-between in the UK? I'd imagine they are uncommon here in Oz. There does seem to be some Wadkin CQs in Oz from what I can gather (or at the very least know of one).

    What a niffy machine! I guess when there are machines like the BRA Radial Arm Saw the use for one of these would be limited.
