Hi All
Well having read and reread all the posts "dithered" for a while, then measured what space I have in the garage and what money I had left after buying Christmas presents for a rapidly expanding family (No2 grandson just born).
The space ruled out Boxfords and similar and the money the Myford ML7s. I've made the plunge with an older Myford an ML2. OK its old but not too worn, has a full set of change gears and after some fiddling I've got everything working. Still lots to do before I'm cutting threads and turning tapers!
Once again thanks for all the help and NO I don't think I'll do a rebore on it!
Howard
Happy Christmas!
