Too far away, too big, not open sided, and was a no name item...
There is one for sale at newmac machinery right now...A Summerskill on their milling machine page..Light red, the colour of choice for the discerning man.

RayG, Josh and I met there again yesterday - ostensibly to pick up Ray's steel. I couldn't help myself again of course and bought half a dozen T&C grinding wheels, a few reamers and a bit of steel..... I have to stop going back.... no really!
Here is a shot of the front of the building. You can celarly see that there are at least 2 previous company names there. We learnt that it was originally set up by George Lansell - the gold baron of Bendigo around 1860. The father of the two guys who owned it until it closed was the foreman, then manager in the early 1900s and bought it off George Lansell.
