jcuk Report post Posted May 5, 2019 Found this on Ebay, never seen this splitter model before, does anyone know the maker? I don't need another splitter, and looks like it needs some work, maybe a good restoration project for someone - just not me. Click here to see the item All the best JCUK Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt S Report post Posted May 5, 2019 Hmm, a collection of unnecessarily complex forgings and castings that form a machine that performs a simple task. Every part is ungainly and badly proportioned but together, while certainly not pretty, it has a certain gawky beauty. Looks British to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like that description could fit a Marina. :) ..or an Allegro..apart ( in both those cases ) from the "gawky beauty" bit. :) Edited May 5, 2019 by mikesc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
