Hello Colin and others,as you say the finish on some of Brook motors left a bit to be desired. Brook are now part of Tico, I phoned up Doncaster a few years ago about a Brook Cromptom Parkison motor and got passed around. They said they never made that particular motor, I said I've got one on the bench, so I emailed them a photo showing the name plate.I was recently reading an Electrical book and it made reference to a Brook made DC motor, never seen one
and wasn't aware that they made DC motors.I had thought of joining "Practical Machinist" but they wanted so many details DOB etc I thought better of it in the end, I thought the CIA would have them it all anyway. I went to Rufforth last Saturday with a friend, we were late getting there and it was a last minute decision whether to go or not. Jeg doesn't get there much before 9.30 or even 10 and I note you are home by 10. Anyway we may meet up during the summer.Ted
