Burdett 70 Mk2 Surface Grinder

[Me.Participant @me]

I have taken the plunge and added a surface grinder to my workshop.

Its a Burdett 70 Mk2 in fairly good condition.

Looking for a fellow member who may have or know of others with the same Surface grinder to help swap tech and maintenance info.

Any advice gratefully received.

Thanks for your response – I have ordered the manual from Lathes.co.uk I’m sure it will have everything i need in it, but its always good to talk to fellow users.

 

If anyone knows of a member with a similar grinder it would be nice to get in contact with them.

I hope the manual you get is useful. The one I got for my Centec was not cheap.being largely old advertising material and whilst on good paper was not much help. Noel.

I hope so to – its a bit of a gamble when you can’t actually see what your buying from these sites –

 

I’ll be sending it back if its not a proper manual……

I spoke too soon – Looks like i will be sending it back –  LOL – they sent me the wrong manual, I ordered the MK2 version and they sent the MK1 manual….
