After having to sell my nice Weinig P22 with accuset heads about a year ago, I have been trying to find another machine.

While I will miss the digital set, this machine would eat the p22.

Got to pick it up tomorrow and then have to figure out how to unload it. 

Wadkin GA 6 head with a 7th Universal head. 

At low voltage it draws 235 amps!!

That's an absolute monster [eek]

A 235amp current draw would probably black out my neighborhood !!! I'd love to see it in action. Looks to be in pretty fair condition too.

Huzzah!  I want some pictures of that beast running once you get it cleaned up and ready to go.  Looks like it could eat Godzilla!
 
Did  anyone else notice what it seems to be doing to the wood posts it is resting on?

[scared]
 
Nice load. Looks like it's one of those ones that can create mouldings with out having the actual cutter head being turned on  [scared].

It just looks so intimidating that the molding makes itself before the machine can get hold of it.
 
OKAY, I'll bite.  What electrical service does your shop have to HANDLE that beast..... [scared] [scared] [scared]

I have 400 amp 480v in my section of the building I am in.
The building has 1600 amp 480/277Y service.

I will have to take some current ones. Stuff changes constantly in there between selling machinery, rebuilding stuff for customers and working my way towards just production parts work. 

The RAS is a Danckeart, Belgium made.
I seem to have a thing for RAS.
