Thanks for taking the time to visit me here at Cambercustom.co.uk.

In the whole of 2009 I only managed to get 20 machines built so they are pretty exclusive. Every single machine is a unique custom built one off. I never build 2 the same. I am pleased to announce that for 2010 onwards, my machines are 100% British. I was originally sourcing my coil cores from USA but I now have them made locally to my own design, I then hand wind them in my workshop. In fact, the coil cores, the springs and a couple of M4 bolts are the only items I don't make. But they are all sourced here in the UK and the springs are top quality items as you would expect.
Everything is handmade, which is why I can genuinely claim 100% handmade. I don't have my frames cast or cnc machined by someone else. I make them here, that way I have control over the quality.
Beware of people claiming to hand make machines and selling them on the likes of e.bay. A lot of these people are just assembling parts from various foreign countries and claiming it all as their own. In fact, one person was just selling chinese junk with a name scratched on the side claiming it was handmade. All for under a tenner. yeah, OK.
Look, you can go and get a machine for say 350 quid with a well known artists name on it but there's a pretty good chance he has never even touched it and most of it will be mass produced. If that suits you, fine. most of them run good and do what you want. But they are never going to be worth what you paid for them again. Because there are hundreds or even thousands of them out there. Just check out the serial numbers to confirm this. Plus, a whole bunch of them are being copied by the chinese anyway so you might not be getting what you think.
My machines are numbered on an anual basis, ie. 2009 had nos. 1 to 20 because I only built 20. 2010 has numbers 1 to however many I get built with the year on there too.
I now have a professional pantograph engraving machine and can put your name or message on the armature bar if required and usually hand engrave the serial number under the coil set out of sight or under the rear spring shelf. I don't scratch it across the side of the machine like some.
The style and look of my machines may not suit you and that's fine. Everyone has different tastes. Mine retain an almost industrial look as they are hand ground, filed, welded and polished etc so if perfectly smooth lines are your thing then they might not suit you. Take a look at some of the photos and see what you think.
I offer a full rebuild service for any machine you might be using that just needs a re-vamp aswell and prices for this service depend on the amount of work required.
My custom handmade one off machines are priced at £150 each. part exchange is available if you have something interesting but not chinese junk, please.
Contact me on the e.mail or on facebook if you need any more info. Enjoy.
