Very sad to see a once, well loved and respected business, just broken up into it's myriad components.  :(

Still drilling holes... Sometimes, in the right place!

Still modifying bits of metal... Occasionally, making an improvement!

I was at RDG tools on Wednesday and there were vans full of the Myford stuff being delivered. They have the warehouse next door ready to startup with their new Myford sales. I`m sure I even saw the parts patterns and moulds but I could be wrong. Apparently in a few months they will be starting selling to the public.

Yes you are correct they have bought the intellectual rights to Myford , they have the patterns and the drawings and the right to manufacture the lathe and spare parts  not sure about  the grinders tho

They have stated that they will have the new RDG myford parts sourced in the UK
