I am sure there are good versions of the 626 mill out there , did Myford manufacture a variant ? what is the 626 mill a copy of ? would be interesting to know its origins .
Luckily converting it to CNC meant I got to throw out most of the crap parts :med:

Looks like the 626 is a copy of the Myford VM http://www.lathes.co.uk/myfordmillers/page2.html

Had been saving for 2yrs before Myford went tits up for one of their VME's, blew it all on new computers and 3D printers :( I still lust after one every time I see a secondhand advertised.
RobWilson:
