    Default Top Turn 300 Lathe

    Good morning all

    I have one and trying to decide whether I should sell it or keep it. I am wondering if anyone can help me with some information regarding a Durden Top Turn 300 Series Lathe. What price might I expect to fetch? Also when were they made. I cant seem to pick up a date of manufacture on it anywhere.

    If you have any knowledge or experience with this lathe I would really appreciate any information you can provide me.

    Regards

    Troy

    Durden was taken over by Hercus. Both were based in South Australia. See 100 YEARS OF SOUTH AUSTRALIAN ENGINEERING | Industry Update Manufacturing Media for a bit of info.
