Great video, brings back memories. I had one of these. Biggest POS ever. Flat belts kept breaking and were difficult to replace. I was able to refurb my boat at the time with it with ok results. A portable Dewalt Table saw, miter saw, router (with table), and lunch box planer, and table top planer as separates will all fit in a similar footprint for storage, and be a magnitude of order better. Very thorough video, and thanks for taking the time to make it!
Hi everyone I have one of these can anyone plz tell me where I can acquire replacement belts or if anyone has the measurements for the belts I can have some made
I have one of these, but I can't get the thicknesser to work. I followed all of the instructions in the manual, the timber feeds through and the planer blade spins, but nothing happens to the timber. I'm sure the height is adjusted right because I can see roller marks on the timber...but it's just not cutting. Any suggestions?
I've got one of these Mia6 combo machines!Does anyone know where you can get parts and service in South Australia.Would really appreciate some feedback.Matt.
Hi , they were made I think in the 1980's in Italy, I don''t think they make them anymore , second hand probably about £300-£500 . you can get similar machines made now for about £600-£800 I think . Hope this is of some help. Cheers James
Hey! I just acquired a similar machine (minus a few of the doodads). I'm wondering if you have .pdfs of any of the manuals that you wouldn't mind sending my way! Regardless, great video!
+James Macdonald I saw one for sale that Im interested in buying. It's in similar condition as yours but the stand is a powered blue color. Can I ask you how much you sold yours for?
Recently purchased the same machine but day one the lever to change the mode of operation broke , does anyone know who may stock spares for the machine, realise chances are slim given the age of the machine . Hope someone can help . I do have original parts manual for machine
Stephen Williams the zinken factory shoot down a Long ago, it's hard to guess who may have spares in stock, but you can try to ask on an italian woosworkers forum such as iltruciolo.it or legnofilia. I think a smith could be abletec to Fix your lever up.
