For sale: £915 plus £84 delivery
This is a Myford ML 7 lathe bearing the serial number K19948 which means it was manufactured in 1950
The micrometer dials to the cross slide and top slide are imperial and the machine is fitted with a screw cutting dial indicator. It has also been upgraded with a Myford part No. 1466 clutch unit and a Myford part No. 1467 long cross slide
It is fitted with a single phase 240V motor allowing operation from a standard domestic power supply.
The machine benefits from having had a full strip down service and inspection as part of the process of preparing it for sale. It has brand new vee belts on the primary drive motor to countershaft and secondary drive countershaft to headstock, plus a new wiper felt.. During my inspection the movement of the carriage along the bed felt very consistent, with little tightening when approaching the right hand end which might otherwise indicate some wear to the bed. The condition of the lead screw nuts can be seen in the final photo.

- Burnerd 1588-10130 3 jaw self centering chuck with matched inside and outside jaws plus key, as per the type specifically made for ML7 lathes
