Hepwort/Colchester Hydraulic Copier

Alec at Budget Machinery will have one,and he knows who does the spares for them.

AFAIK they are still made, by Dunsley Engineering in Holmfirth. I wanted a manual for one a few years ago, they weren't cheap but machinery manuals rarely are.

Dunsley (sp?) Eng is long gone.I was at the sale 4-5 years ago.They made the Hepworth lathes as well as the copier.They also manufactured very good pneumatic barfeeds for lathes.There other product was solid fuel fires and stoves in which they decided there was more of a future than machine tools and which they still manufacture.One of their employees who`s name escapes me but who Budget Machinery knows decided to carry on making spares and servicing copiers in his garage.After the sale they skipped all their spares and drawings. regards,Mark.

Oh well, it doesn't seem five minutes since I got a manual from them. (don't have it now). Doesn't time fly when you're having fun!

I'd heard of stoves made by Dunsley, never made the connection.
