    Cool thread Camoz!
    Could I include;
    Lampard made a heavy wood lathe and power-hacksaws, at least. Appear in the Trove record 1949 onwards. Company was in Condell Park (Sydney).
    L. Goldie & Sons, Leichhardt, heavy wood lathe and horizontal borer known in captivity.
    W.D. Valentine, 73 Downshire Rd, Elsternwick (tel; LF2755, so date that!). I have a phone photo of a timber framed bench saw by Valentine, taken at this year's Lost Trades Fair.

    'Waratah' spring hammer by Hands & Scott c.1911- 20, 'Duffy, Todd & Williams' spring hammer c.1920, Premo lathe- 1953, Premo filing machine.

    Good job guys, they are coming thick and fast!!

    I was toying with the idea of on top of having the list, perhaps putting together a collage (for want of a better word) of badges, something like this:



    If you can find tags and post them, I will put them together and post it up (there is a lot of useful detail in some of these badges, so it would probably make for a useful reference once complete). It would be best ,if you find the image online to try as best you can to credit the source. The above as you can see are from this thread (except the Artisan, which is from a post Melbourne Matty did).

    Cheers,

    Camo

    P.S. No I'm not taking up scrap booking as a hobby

    Could we add "Morris Machine Tools" to the list of manufactures? I know they manufactured bandsaws.

    To answer your question Camo. I only put Hafco up as a joke, so yes, I think they do not qualify for the list.

    Bit of a joke at my end too, but I do note that Hare & Forbes have been around since 1930, so they should
    so they should probably go in under merchants?

    Paulcall was at Canterbury Road Bankstown, NSW.

    There was a Chas E Skinner at Botany Road Redfern, this may have been an older address prior to moving to Gladesville? I used to deal with them for used machinery such as industrial gearboxes, and where I bought my GMF 8" pedastal grinder about 31 years ago.

    I was looking at ACE Woodworking Machinery, and thanks to Trove found this advert published in the Newcastle Sun 24th March 1948:



    So based on that, this means ACE wasn't making the machines at the time? Premier Engineering Works 80-82 Tudor St Hamilton was making them. We even exported them to China.

    Camo,
    what about D Richardson & sons, the dust extraction, cyclone maker.
    I was looking into them since I've got one not being used next to the shed.
    A very interesting report.....
    http://www.maribyrnong.vic.gov.au/Files/Heritage_Assessment.pdf


    History: Original factory of D. Richardson & Sons and Richardson Gears. The former moved to Ballarat Road
    Braybrook in the 1950s where they still operate. David Richardson come from New Zealand in 1887 following a
    Glasgow apprenticeship. He purchased the house and workshop in Whitehall Street to expand a business
    manufacturing windmills and perforated metals. Pelton wheels and mining batteries were made for a time but
    after a company division in 1912 one side settled down to specialise in perforated metals while Richardson
    Gears continued gear cutting. David Richardson took up fan making in the 1920s.
