My Previous Workshop

and my Coronet Consort

Back in 1983 I set up with the Coronet Consort range of combination machinery but I sold them all, much to my regret, when I moved into a larger workshop and bought larger individual  machines.  I thought that I had progressed but I missed the accuracy of these small powerful machines.

I also at this time used Arundel Lathes.  Starting with an Arundel M230 and progressing through with the K450 and K600.  I also had at one time an Arundel E5 bowl turning head.

The Consort saw table with a 4 inch sanding belt attached.  The planer/thicknessor was actually the integral Sovereign.  An excellent little planer.  It had an extension to the table making it 22.1/2 inch - ideal for jointing. The slot mortiser attachment was very beefy.
The Coronet Imp bandsaw.  Beautiful machine, it had 3 speeds.  Bit bulky for my workshop now, My Arundel M230 Lathe.
