[maverick54]

Anyone know when Axminster rebranded their hobby lathes from the white to the red colour?

I got one of their red hobby bandsaws in Feb - nice bit of kit for a hobbyist

Is this the white stuff refined or is it the yellow perform stuff (or am I totally out of date ?!?!).

The yellow disappeared some time ago. I'm not sure if yellow became white became red though or if the quality changed

Thanks Mike. Now I think about it I'm sure they had white and white n dark grey on the go in parallel also!

Come on APTC, your not prada - what's going on?

I know swmbo has on occasion come home with 'this season's colour' but surely this marketing does not extend to the home workshop now!!

Confused and bemused of Glos,
