Hi Camo,
I have a lathe made by Jarman Bros, Shepherd St Sydney. Below are a few photos for reference. It would be good if anyone has any information on this maker.

Okay, so Louis Eichmann appear to have been machinery agents (they were the agents for the Chaco guides on my bandsaw).

However it seems they may have also manufactured some machinery, or had it manufactured for them.

A google search suggests they were in business between 1956 and 1992. First in Hobson St, then 169 Great North Road, and finally at 39 Huia St, Otahuhu - all in Auckland, NZ.

It's just interesting browsing through the classifieds in Trove.
Check out the Machinery section from 1946.
There is a lot of choice. Certainly a lot more than today.
21 Sep 1946 - The Sydney Morning Herald - p17
Some rich research material there!

I contacted Servian for some information on my drill in the early 1980's and at that time they had a branch or their headquarters in Belfield NSW. He explianed they imported and re-badged machinery from all over the world. My gear head drill for instance was made in Sweden.
As an apprentice I used to work for a company that did all A.E. Herbert's printing in the 1960's.CHRIS

Name plates.
Here's a couple more tags.
My father served his time at Buzacotts before the war.
They sold all manner of farming gear, drag saws etc and of course stationary engines and Wolsley shearing hand pieces.
We had a lot of these tags but they got used as soft jaws over the years.

Dyco
I was trying to find more info on Dyco, for this thread. Google brings up many Dycos' in NZ. Some were reincarnations of the woodworking machine manufacturer, others in different lines of business. Dyco Manfacturing Ltd; Dyco Industries Ltd; Dyco International Ltd; Dyco Machinery Ltd...
So I searched Trademe, hoping to find a good clear manufacturer's tag...
Dyco2.jpg
This one is not exactly clear. It says "DYCO, Dyco Industries Ltd" and gives an address in Great South Road, Auckland. Dyco Industries Ltd was incorporated 22nd May, 1987. It is not longer trading ("struck off")
DycoLE.jpg
I can't read this one, but it's interesting that Louis Eichmann were the agents.
Then I remembered the 4 1/2" buzzer I was given a year ago (and have never used), is a Dyco
It's tag says "DYCO, Manufactured by HJB Engineering Co. Ltd., 178 Station Rd, Penrose, Auckland, NZ". I can't find any reference to HJB Engineering Co. Ltd on google.
