Hi all after a long day its finally home and yes it is a Colchester Master 6.5. I have found what i think is the model or serial number its Machine number F3/55745 its filthy and needs a good clean but I am very pleased with it. Nothing is seized and there is plenty of oil and grease on it, it also came with a small locker crammed with goodies, a set of collects and chuck for them, a 4 jaw chuck, large face plate there's a quick change tool post and quite a few cutter with the removable cutting bits. With it are a few other bits and pieces I am not yet familiar with so I will need to do some research. I dont do a lot of turning and have been making do with fathers old Grayson, that will now hopefully be sold to recoup some cash back of this one. I will first get it wired up before I give it a general clean up and change the oils. Everything turns ok when i turn the chuck so fingers crossed. I will need to see if its possible to get a manual for the wiring. All in all a good day out, but glad to be back in the countryside though. A few pics added to give you an idea. Cheers Jordon
