This Quorn is the original machine built by Professor Chaddock

The Quorn was designed by Professor Chaddock and described by him in the "Model Engineer" magazine.  The Quorn is capable of sharpening and forming not only milling cutters, lathe and shaping tools but taps and reamers etc.

There are two variants of the machine, a Mark 1 without belt and wheel guards and a Mark 2 with guards as shown above.

We can supply the castings, drawings, wheels, dressers and  motors as well as other accessories.

The Quorn book written by Professor Chaddock is now back in print.  The book covers the building and comprehensive use of the machine.  We have this book in stock, see price list for current cost.

Please Note.    It is essential for safety's sake that the speed of a grinding wheel is known. For this reason series wound motors must NOT be used.  The motors we supply are small frame frame 1/6 hp 2800 rpm units as recommended by the designer.
