Where are Kingston lathes made?

Apr 07, 2005 4 Replies

I was browsing an auctioneer's web page and noticed a company with some gigantic late-model manual lathes up for auction. The brand is "Kingston". Does anyone know what country these lathes are made in? Google didn't turn up anything.



I'm just curious.

"Kingston".

My money says they're made in the UK. I'm curious, too.

Thanks for the link. They're quite impressive!

Some...some were made in Romania IRRC. They are indeed a decent machine. Also if you see a "Lion", its also Romanian/Bulgarian and is a very nice and solid machine.
