Myford Super 7 Serial number

[Tom Davies 1Participant @tomdavies1]

Hi

I have a Super 7 fitted with a gearbox which I have owned for about 20 years+ (I have lost the invoice). I had a reason to to determine which model I have and looked for the serial no (on the front lh side of the bed) there is nothing stamped on the bed in that area.

I have looked all over the lathe and cannot find one anywhere. What pointers are available to tell me what version of the lathe I have.

Thanks in advance

Regards

Tom

Welcome Tom,

You should be able to figure it out from here: http://www.lathes.co.uk/myford/

If you can find the serial number "While late machines had their serial numbers stamped into the front of the bed, just to the right of the gap, earlier versions in a difficult-to-find location punched into the vertical way on the rear of the bed at its tailstock end" try here: http://www.lathes.co.uk/myford/page17.html or here: http://www.myford.co.uk/acatalog/Serial_Numbers.html
