Boxford Industrial lathes

[Pete.Participant @pete-2]

Hi, I read in another old thread on here someone suggested starting a thread for these machines, but I couldn't find this so i assume nobody started it.

As I'm the proud new owner of a Boxford 11.30 industrial lathe, and know nothing about them, I hope the moderators see it OK to start a thread sharing info about these lathes.

A thread to share information on this style of Boxford lathe

You will probably find other threads if you search for "Boxford X10" or similar

This:

is an important source of info. for these machines as it gives details of the centre spline in the changewheels.

Thanks Brian, I'll have a look at it, I searched that Jason just s 2 short threads, one with a dead links for a manual, thanks DC31, I'll take a look.

If any owners know where you can get a manual that would be great, or if you want to sell me a photocopied manual, I'd consider that.

Also be good for other owners to chime in, be interesting to hear other opinions and stuff,

Thanks, Pete
