You will likely hear from me. I have a fair amount of attachments which leave me a bit clueless as to their purpose.

You will learn best just by doing - the size just perfect for restoration and service of our steam engines. Very nice also the gearbox - you will make threads directly on the lathe. Have fun Arnold :D #Post#: 62360-------------------------------------------------- Re: Myford Super 7 Lathe Preparing for Service In It's New Home at The Office of Steam By: RedRyder Date: April 2, 2024, 8:33 am --------------------------------------------------------- Thanks Arnold.!

It's great you started with such a rich selection of tooling as it can get expensive quickly. I had to look-up the tiny Rusnok milling machine. Never even seen one of those online before. #Post#: 62391-------------------------------------------------- Re: Myford Super 7 Lathe Preparing for Service In It's New Home at The Office of Steam By: RedRyder Date: April 3, 2024, 11:30 am --------------------------------------------------------- More stuff from Don....
