Hope its good brick walls, a concrete base and decent roof and not really a 'shed' .. Machine tools don't like the damp!

Gosh thats a monster, could do with a strip and clean.... I couldnt even get that in my garage!
hi its been a while since i was last on.
since then I have been slowly cleaning up my mill,checking all the levels and giving it a good lube up,I have now got it wired in at my work and have been doing some small jobs for them (I keep looking for excuses to use it :naughty:)
I splashed out and bought a miester dro s/h off of ebay,fitted it up recently and am very pleased with it,seems accurate enough with lots of features that i am still finding out how to use.:cool:
any way i've attached some pics etc hope they are ok
cheers Tom....

Hi. I'm a new member just acquired a Parkson model 1NA Universal mill.
Any one have manuals for this machine?
