On a local community forum someone posted this picture of a horizontal milling adaptor his late father had made for his Myford. It is the sort of thing that is quite likely to have been an ME design so wonder if anyone recognises it. That's a morse taper at the bottom right and out of shot at the top is another bar to link the end of the arbor (including spacers) and the support bar far left.

I found a couple of references in the index but outside the issues I have to hand tonight.

If you say which issues I'm sure we can help

I'v got a pull out centre page from issue 21 MEW "A Lathe Milling Attachment" by J. Neave, there is a 5 page build article in that issue.

Thanks Ian, I didn't search MEW but it doesn't look like that one, even modified.

The references I found are 1984 vol152 issue 3730 page 635 GP Nicholson Horizontal Milling attachment for Unimat and

1974 vol 140 issue 3488 page 450 W.K.Walsome A horizontal Milling Attachment.

Just today I finished re-organising my ME collection onto easily accessible shelves instead of piles 20 mags high!
