FOR SALE

I have been contacted by Paul who has a Coronet Minorette and attachments for sale. You can contact him directly at paulct_98@yahoo.com so drop him an email if you are interested.

The Machine was purchased some time in the 1970's from a Junk shop in Croydon as a Coronet Minorette and over the years other attachments including, a 4 inch Planer/thicknesser, Band Saw and Sanding Table were acquired. There is also an emergency stop plunger fitted. Note the rare swept back tailstock for increasing the distance between turning centres. Other bits include a morse taper chuck + bits, a wobble saw plus the proverbial box of bits. Zoom in on the cupboard to see everything that is there or ask Paul himelf via email. This is a compact and clean machine with everything you would need to put it straight to work. I definitely would except I have approximately three and a half of them already.

We are selling our Coronet Minorette saw and cabinet. We purchased this several years ago and have restored it to fully working condition. It has been checked over by a qualified electrician and everything works as it should. It runs on 240v from a standard plug. It has had little use in our hands and, as we are planning to down-size shortly, it is now surplus to requirements. It comes with all the fittings you can see in the photographs, with a number of extras:

An original Coronet cabinet - these are very scarce, this one restored and repainted
A genuine original Anglepoise 4-spring worklamp. It has been rewired and the cowl has been replaced with a coffee can, it has a few dings and scratches. The springs are a bit rusty and one has been replaced, but everything works and it does its job of illuminating the saw in a dark workshop.
Spare motor (untested)
Original small grinding wheel and mitre fence
Assorted blades and an adaptor for fitting a modern saw blade (currently installed)
Handbook
Castors for moving the saw around (could easily be removed or changed)
Wipe-clean work top

This may be a veteran piece of wood-working machinery but it is beautifully made and functions exactly as it should. It is also very heavy so we are selling it for collection only from near Oswestry, Shropshire. You will need an estate car, van or trailer for collection. We can assist with loading. Any questions, please get in touch.
