I found this neat video on the manufacturing of Colchester lathes on youtube and thought some of you might enjoy it. Its a older video, but pretty informative!

Very cool. I could watch sand casting videos all day. I wonder though, how much 'testing' was done on my Chinese 14x40 Modern lathe...... I picture the video looking a little different.....

Was Colchester bought by Clausing? I could swear I saw a new Colchester 13” with Clausing badges on it as well a couple weeks ago
