Does anybody have a Metric Boxford 280 or similar with the screwcutting gearbox? I've got one, but the screwcutting chart affixed is for an Imperial leadscrew. Can some kind soul please send me a photo of the chart so that I can sort things out? I'd get one from Boxfords, but a) it's rather expensive and b) the new colour scheme on the new ones won't match the other fascia labels on mine and I don't want to fork out for all of them!

Nigel9172 at talktalk.net would find me.

Many thanks.

Yup. I have a similar one.

They are all derivatives of what they call the X10 series of lathes.

Give me a few mins to go and take some snaps.
