I have a cooksley spindle moulder , but dont know the history of the company - i'm sure some here could be more help

As far as I understand Cooksley manufactured light industrial machines
not quite the quality of say Wadkin but by modern standards still well built

If it stands up to close inspection you'll likely get many years use from it

I've no idea about spares but these things are stock British engineering so
refurb should'nt give you too much grief

You find them still for sale on ebay and some online secondhand machinery dealers - take a quick look and maybe get an idea of current market value
