Lots of Triple Phase

[Roger]

I've been approached by a friend who needs to get rid of 9 big old machines including Spindle Moulder, Thickness Planer, Tool Grinder, Sander? and some I haven't got a clue about. They're all in the North East - and of course being a business man, he wants money for them (no doubt as much as he can)!

They are all triple phase apparently and were used in a Shipyard shop for internal fitting work. They haven't been used for at least 6 years or more, but supposedly start up and run - although no one knows how to use them now

If anyone knows of a place that may be interested or even wants to look at them themselves.

Hi Mel

They'd probably like a job lot, but basically they want to sell them and get what they can. I can pass on whatever you tell me, or however you would prefer to do it.

The spindle moulder looks like a Wilson similar to a wadkin eq. The router is a wadkin ls. The planer a Wadkin UO/S I think. I think the morticer is a sagar but i am no expert. The machines dont look like they are up to PUWER regs so any buyer is going to want a discount. Prices vary on these type of machines Daltons for example have a rebuilt Wadkin LS router on there site for nearly 10k but usually go on ebay for less than a grand.
