Wanted - lever action tailstock attachment for Myford S7.

The title says it all really, the only slight hiccup is that I am in perth (not perth scotland) so postage might be a touch expensive, but thats a minor detail if anyone has one for sale ...

Yes. The lever operated attachment is just exactly that - it is operated by a lever. The rack operated one is operated via a rack.

I'm afraid I don't have one, but suggest G&M Tools, Penyfarthing Tools, The Toolbox (Colyton) or Home and Workshop Machinery (Footscray) as potential sources of used Myford stuff. The current Myford price list puts it at £268.68 imc VAT + carriage.

Recently I just missed a couple of s/h 9" faceplates from the used tool dealers in the £45- £50 + VATprice range - I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Myford's price for a brand new one was only £55 + VAT - bulked up the order withsome other spares and consumables and carriage added £10 to the bill.

Good luck.....

John Tanner and I put Martin Cleeve's Skew Rack Tailstock( for the ML7) onto the mlathemods4 site.

OK, this is for the ML7 and the S7 has a different tailstock. With both machines in my workshop, it would not be unduly difficult to do a modified design.

In addition to this, there is a lot of additional info in the Yahoo groups which may be of interest.

Cheers

Pass - not sure whats the difference ? The animal I am looking for allows to better control with small drills and faster insertion & removal of the drill, especially usefull with deep holes etc ..

Thanks

Another posted menti> Would that be a different device to the rack operated tailstock
