    Default Wadkin KT Buzzer

    Nice. I thought is was a Wadkin RC buzzer at first, but looking at the maker's tag it's a Wadkin KT. I believe the KT was originally a flat-belt driven machine. The test number indicates it's pre-1937 - and I'd guess around 1920 +/- 5 years.

    The fence looks very similar to that fitted to the early RB buzzers. I'll have to have a closer look at the detail when I have more time.

    Here are the photos (as the advert will be deleted sooner or later).

    Edit: the seller says it's 400mm wide and the tables are 1965mm long - which I guess is 16" x 6' 5" in old money.

    Thanks for posting.

    Cheers, Vann.
