More Features

Well we have more features,

  1. Use correct sentience formatting rules, a space after the colon: semi-colon; comma, full stop. and exclamation! characters. URL address will use words with dots between the words without spaces and if the system sees these it will treat them as URL links. So please use the preview, it allows you access to the edit button, to change the mistakes otherwise the adverts will just be removed.
  2. NEW! logo after 10 years the tread board needed repainting, if any remember the old Green text logo might remember how the tread patten ended up becoming the background. The photos have also been upgraded to add logo's and date/time stamps to the images on upload so that the photos are noticeable for people linking to them.
  3. Enjoy your use of the site, stay safe, keep to social distance if you are visiting colleagues to pick up a new toy.
  4. A new guide on the form submission page has been added to help people avoid mistakes they get their advert removed, we are sorry that some adverts are lost due to this but if people do not read, we cannot guide them.

Information: Myford 254 plus gearbox - not working

Fri 7th Nov '25

Advert ID: 44867

Machines (Large Tooling)
Details:
I have a metric Myford 254 Plus lathe. I'm having difficulty with the gearbox and the selection of feeds. Some of which will not select and some do. Those that do are A 1,2, B 1,2 and C 3,4,5 the others will not engage when using the selector knobs. I have tried the usual spinning of the chuck while the drive is engaged and endless fiddling with the selector knobs but to no avail.
Does anyone have any ideas? I've tried Myford but it's not their principal area of expertise having not had the need to strip a machine down. They do have gearbox spares though.
Getting the gearbox off the lathe and dismantling it looks a challenge. Quite apart from diagnosing why it doesn't select the feeds, unless it's clearly damaged.
Does anyone have any ideas of why it may not be working or how to remove and dismantle the gearbox? You may have the expertise or indeed any gearbox spares or a gearbox under the bench!
I do have a manual so I can see the general arrangement.
All ideas welcome.
Thank you.
Michael.

For Sale: Glass Lathe

Wed 5th Nov '25

Advert ID: 44864

Machines (Large Tooling)
Renovate (Complete but not finished)
See all ads from Peter Watkinson
Details:
I have been clearing a late friends house and found a small glass lathe, This is a specialised machine for scientific glass blowing, or the restoration of glassware or even repairing rare radio valves! Specifically for joining glass components by fusing or welding the joints with the use of oxy gas burners whist the two components are sychronously rotated between two opposed geared headstocks each with three jaw chuck having the jaws slotted to hold fibre extensions to hold the work. One headtock is sliding to allow length adustment and slight compression to complete the joint. I believe that some art glass artists also use them. The capacity is aboit 4.5" Centre height and a bit over 12" There are a couple of other torches with it. It will need a motor fitting (I probably have one) and a bit of TLC. It is heavy and I have removed the headstocks to bring the bed weight down to 50 Kg. It will need to be collected from South Somerset.
I am loath to scrap it if anyone can make use of it.
Many thanks for looking!

I wanted to do an Imperial thread on my Viceroy recently but I found it was impossible, I've cut imperial threads before using the Spreadsheet on the Denford site for guidance. With the gears that I have I couldn't get within 10% of the thread I wanted.
What I would like to get is a combination gear or possibly a 38T stud gear. If you can help at all I would like to hear from you.
