Peter Morrison RIP

[Tony JeffreeParticipant @tonyjeffree56510]

I have just heard from Ian Cooper that Peter passed away last week. Peter, who was the proprietor of Peatol Machine Tools, was well known to many of our community and his stall at the various UK shows was a familiar sight until recent years. I got to know him well over the years following my purchase of a Peatol lathe, and later a CNC mill, and he was kind enough to give me space on his stall at some of the shows to sell my Divisionmaster products.

He will be greatly missed.

I regret that I never met him, but will gladly applaud him for marketing the Peatol machines.

Sorry … I never really understood the relationship between Taig and Peatol

Sad to hear, I have had quite a few dealings with Peter over the years and was always helpful.

Peatol is the UK brand name for the Taig lathe & mill.

Thanks for confirming that much, Tony … I just never understood why, and wasn’t sure which way-round it worked.

[ Not that their trading relationship is of any significance to me. ]
