      I have a Viceroy TDS lathe, looking at some sales brochures for that model I see a photo of what appears to be an Emco FB2 milling head fixed to it.as an optional accessory. I cannot see on my machine any mounting points that would enable this to be done. I would welcome any comments.

          I have a Viceroy too and there are no mounting points for a milling head.

          What I do know is that there are a huge number of minor variations of this lathe. Every one I have seen is different in some way. So it wouldn't surprise me if a milling head was offered.

            They did make a combination lathe apparently sold to the MOD a lot. There's an example documented here:

              It does look like an FB2 head but there are various Taiwanese copies of that milling machine ( I had one) so it could be one of those which probably makes more sense.
