Hi folks, I'm John. I tinker with old VWs and like to make stuff. (hence the username) I've had a Boford CSB lathe now for a couple of years and apart from turning the odd spacer I've not really used it much. This is mainly because I don't know how to use it properly, hopefully that can change with a little guidance. :coffee: Here's my lathe, it's had a forward/reverse switch fitted since this pic.... I also have plenty of other tools, my newest acquisition is a 30" 3 in 1 folder (formit) from Chester MT, |

Hi John. Make sure you bolt that former down to something really solid, I have the 24"version and I have to swing on both handles to bend a 24" length of 22guage steel. I to had a Boxford exactly like yours, but sold it some time ago and bought a Chester DB10GVS. I am sure you will learn a lot from the forum and have a good laugh as well. Cheers Dek. :med: |
