I was looking at Tormeks today in Elmers in Kesgrave. They had a T7 and 2000 side by side and apart from the colour (Blue v Green). The only other differences I could see were the graduations on the tool rest on the T7 and two clamping nuts on the horizontal mounting position.

Is there such a big difference?
 
The T7 has several improvements over the earlier models. In particular, several parts are now stainless steel so they don't rust.

Cheers :wink:

Are they selling the 2000?
 
They had one on the shelf that was incomplete, after much deliberation I bought it with a 10% discount, only thing missing was a basic sharpening guide.
One went on Ebay yesterday second hand for the same price I paid at Elmers. They are a good bunch of guys at Elmers.

Sounds like a bargain =D>

I was going to say that you could have bought an oilstone and bundle of rags instead but that might start an argument - so I won't :wink: :D
