Comments:
I came across this saw at Maritzburg Auctioneers, an auction house in Pietermaritzburg kwa Zulu Natal. Walker Turner machines are not very common out here and this is the first drill of that make I have come across. This machine looked to be in excellent condition and does not appear to have had a hard life. There was minimal wear on the pulleys, it was still in its original paint and the motor badge was pristine.
In this picture the quill is locked fully extended to obviously stop people from messing about with the handle.
I do not own this machine.
