I have been trying to decide what to replace my recently deceased Woodstar PT with something a bit heavier duty.
After having looked at a few newer machines I have decided to go with something British & something Cast Iron. I had initially wanted to go with 240V, but have quickly realised that it's easier to go with a 3 phase machine & get some form of inverter/converter.
The 3 main contenders seem to be:
1. Wadkin BAOS.
2. Cooksley BPJ.
3. Wilson PAK.
Has anybody got any opinions on how the 3 compare in terms of usability, reliability, parts availability etc? Also which of these machines will happily work with a phase converter/inverter?
