At last , finally got a myford ML7 Lathe.
Been after one for a while and one came up on evilbay local to me and was too good to miss. Paid a little more than i wanted £790 but it is a great investment and a great workhorse lathe.
A totally refurbished and repainted ML7 works like new lovingly restored by a retired enthusiast . Picking it up tomorrow morning .
Hope the wife has her Weetabix when i bring it home.
PLAN:
Seller will load onto my van with a hoist, planning to hopefully slide lathe out of van straight onto myford stand on wheels, secure 4 bolts and push up drive EASY

We will wait and see .
ps: Will be selling CHESTER SUPER CONQUEST SOON IF ANYONES INTERESTED, only used 3 times .
