Hi all, I have just retired from toolmaking and as I inherited from my next door neighbour a Myford – Drummond type M lathe, have decided to keep my hand in with a bit of model making etc. I have restored the lathe and am making and buying a few goodies to make it work for me. As part of my Ex-job was servicing the machinery I have quite a good understanding of lots of types of machinery.

Hello David and welcome. I live near M1 Jtn 28 just over the border in Derbyshire.

Clogs comment about retirement is very true, especially regarding how on earth time was found to go to work!

Welcome to the forum David, the number of M-types still in regular use is incredible!
