Hears one for when you get round to it http://www.wswells.com/projects/ed_godwin/crossfeed.pdf there is another for the compound , search for Boxfords know your lathe will help .

WOW.
That should keep you (and us) entertained for a while. Do I need to stock up beef jerky and beer for this spectacle to unfold?

That souds really interesting. Maybe another thread?

The back gear lever on the side of the headstock will lock the spindle unless you can also move the lever on the front of the headstock. Later (much later) Boxfords had a single lever for back gear engagement.
Where did you find this gem. Maybe they have some other bargains! :lol: :lol:

I hope you didn't actually have to pay for this lathe :bugeye:.
It does look like a major challenge tho'
Looking forward to the restoration logs. Good luck

Everything has a value, people buy lathes like the Boxford and then sell the components off as spares.
