A vintage Denbigh H2 lightweight horizontal milling machine - belt driven, in later years somebody has assembled a framework with electric motor and countershaft to eliminate the need for line shafting. The conversion has been done sympathetically, picking up on the original floor mounting bolt holes - it can be removed leaving the machine in its original condition.

We believe the machine to date from the late 1920s or early 1930s. Of elegant proportions and weighing in at around a quarter of a ton, it has survived in remarkable condition - all castings and the table appear in good condition, it still appears entirely capable of doing a job of work.

On arrival back in 2022 the machine was initially ear-marked for the vintage workshop our engine shed. Fast forward three years, it's no close to being install there, we've finally had to recognise that there are only so many projects a man can undertake!).
