Hi

Bought a new toy today

It was great to open the sized door & find it full of mint chucks & steadies
Brought some bits home lathe coming next Saturday

Nice  :beer:

I know you said you were looking for a bigger lathe, how much bigger than the boxford is this in real terms?

You gonna do some videos of its installation John?

Would make some interesting viewing in my opinion.

Nice one John - a good make and model I think  :thumbup:

What do you know of it's background - education or industry ?

(Education = little wear but possibly carriage /chuck crashes, industry = potentially much wear but probably less abuse)

lordedmond:
Nice pressy you have there john

All you have to do is make room for it , is the sparky bits compatible or are you going the VFD route

Have fun but do look after Debs just keep ticking off the chemo sessions soon it will be half way then the numbers look a lot better that's the way we did it

I would say basically unused no crash damage & no wear
Very light surface rust & grease
