Quote:Hi
Lads
I am going to build a dividing head
As described in
The Amateur's Lathe
by
L.H.Sparey
I will be doing some video as I well
Made a start on the pattern for the base
This is slightly larger than the one on the book as my Boxford has a higher centre height ,than the Myford 7 it was originally built for

Hi John, taking the plans from ''the master'' eh? I have his book he really knew his stuff,all practical advice based on his own practice,I'll catch up with your videos now, I've been so busy out with the engine 4 weekends in a row,I knacked my guts dragging the trailer with the engine on & was off work [about 1 ton] round the yard so mrs artfull's got me a caravan mover this weekend. [she loves me really!!!]
