    Default New lathe from GPW: a tease

    Here's an extract from the latest Gary Pye newsletter:

    We have started to import our own branded range of
    machinery including bandsaws, tablesaws, dust
    collectors, sanders, mobile bases, drill press,
    mortisers etc. Having many contacts and visiting
    Taiwan and China for the last fifteen years we know
    which factories to use and are trying to offer all
    machines with upgraded specs at very
    competitive pricing. Another plus for our customers is
    that we are also making youtube videos of the
    machines. So far we have on of our GPW-18LD
    Bandsaw. Click here to watch our video. Yes there is
    a rumour that we have a new woodlathe in stock,
    we are just making a few minor changes and testing
    it, be assured this is one serious lathe weighing over
    450kg with all the goodies on it, hopefully next
    newsletter we can officially unveil it.
    Cheers, Ern

    Thumbs up

    Sounds like it could be the goods!

    I think Jet has shot themselves in the foot and Gary has decided to take a gamble. Good on him!! His chucks appear to be good value and his service is always tops.

    Love the Orange wheel on that BS.
