Guards removed for clarity. Almost completely redesigned the much more robust and larger-capacity Mk. The main improvements over earlier versions centred on the use of a swinging rise and fall column at the rear under the control of a handwheel working though bevel gears and a longer table with improved travel in both directions.

The accessories were also completely revised to make the most of the new machine's capacity and several new items, including adaptors to hold 30 and 40 International tapers, an indexing attachment, and a high-speed spindle to 10, rpm were added to the accessory list.

The more heavily-built Clarkson Mk. Visible in its recess on top of the table is a clamping bolt that allowed the upper and lower sections of the table to be rotated relative to each other.

Hi,I am looking for a manual for a Clarkson Tool and cutter grinder. I would be happy to pay for copying and post or very pleased if someone could scan one and email it.

Thank you in advance. Again, I have the original booklet for mine but MaryPoppinsbag on E-Bay has most of the others which can add a clearer picture about some of the operations necessary to get the best out of the tool.

Whilst I have most of the accessories including the radius attachment, there are huge chunks which I would have written in. I once amused BikePeter who also has one of these beasties with a lathe tool holder for the Clarkson which was made out of wood. Nothing like using one's head in such matters! Have fun Norman.
