No worries John. Say hi to Mr Douglas for me

Phil,

Please put me on the list as well. The Douglas modification is getting there, if slowly.

Thanks,
Bill

Is anyone keeping a list of shapers in the Brotherhood? It seems to me that Douglas's are predomimate?? I have a prewar? 18" Alba, which I havent used as much as I would have liked as I have had to run it with a lawn mower motor! In recent years I have acquired an 550mm Klopp that is presently sitting forlornly in a mates shed. I have now moved to a property where three phase is available and a new shed will be built early in new year and hopefuly the Klopp will be in action soon after! The Klopp has a friction drive arangement that quite interesting, also I am looking for any information on the klopp that I can find.
Yes, I will post some photos later!

Should everyone throw a small pic on the stick with our username, model, age as its name? Just a thought.
It does seem the douglas's are popular, but they were made here so it makes sense. Unlike mine, one of 4 that i can find online worldwide....but then what can you expect from a company that went bankrupt in 1927?

Hi Ewan,
not a bad idea, not mandatory of course but if anyone would like to they can.
I will put a folder in for the pics.
