At the moment I would say around 3K, I almost purchased a Hafco PT300 but it was rougher than expected.

I’ve been looking at the Timbecon units - however can’t find much feedback on them. Even on...

Unfortunately it was damaged upon inspection. Back to the drawing board!

Bit of an update, have found a PT300 Hafco for 2K I’m practically brand new condition. I’m going to pull the trigger on it & get stuck into some work.

G’day Robert, I’m located about 5 hrs from you, If you know of any way to get it sent over my way, Ill be all over it.

I can appreciate the fact that it’s a great deal - however I don’t have the option to drive there & back at the moment. I’m facing some other constraints.

I’m still trying to feel out the best quality product or bang for buck. As you mentioned with Hafco being made by multiple manufacturers- that would explain the hit-or-Miss type...

I’ve tried posting in the ‘wanted’ section but it keeps telling me I need to add a title prefix & have no idea how to do it!

Well, I’ve upped my budget to $2500 or so, so hopefully I can find something.

G’day David,

Mate, thanks for the insight - it’s exactly what I was hoping for when I joined the community. I agree with cast iron & will look into the brands you mentioned. New/old does not...

Ahh that’s disappointing then.

G’day all,
