John,

iirc they are still in business somewhere around Guildford.

They advertise fairly regularly in the ME - I think I remember seeing their advert in quite a recent edition.

Jim.

I have a mkII that I inherited from my father. He had a small amount of information from TENGA in 1992. That information simply comprises a brief spec for the mkIII and some pictures of accessories (collets, boring head, clamps etc.) and a list of companies which use the product. Send me a snail mail address and you are welcome to copies of what little I have.

I don't have any collets (don't even know the official designation for the BCA/Leinen collets) but I was planning to manufacture a batch from first principals once I've got the new workshop built and the Hardinge commissioned.

If you do, somehow, get your hands on a manual I would appreciate a chance of a copy, as would Tony at lathes.co.uk, I suspect.

Regards Mark Rand RTFM
