ML7 gear quadrant & LH leadscrew bracket

[David Davies 8Participant @daviddavies8]

Hi,

on page 19 of his book 'screwcutting in the lathe' Martin Cleeve shows a photo of his machine featuring a quadrant quick lock incorporated into the LH leadscrew bracket together with his fabricated gear quadrant. This is also shown on page 43. Does anyone know if this design was published in the ME and if so in which issue(s)?

Thanks

Dave

Hello Michael

Many thanks for your reply, I will check the 1977 index. The thread was interesting, especially JS's comment about Bridgeport mills!

Regards

Dave
