Details:
This is a 1958 Boxford lathe fitted with a BUD saddle and lead screw so can do power feed on the cross slide as well as along the bed separately from the lead screw nuts.
So it has the full spec of a BUD model Boxford.
The original lathe was 1958 and its V belt drive with 16 spindle speeds from 38 to 1300 RPM.
The bed is in good order and I was impressed by its accurate when using it. It has a 41/2" swing and a no2 morse taper in the tailstock.
There is a full set of imperial change wheels. Some of these gears have a bit of rust showing but all are usable.
It also comes with a 4" 3jaw chuck with both sets of jaws. This runs dead true and all edges on all the jaws are mint and not damaged. There are two small notches on the chucks front corner on the body but these are not near the jaws slots and don’t affect its working.
There’s a 5" 4jaw independent chuck as new which may have never done a job its so clean and tight.
There’s a 71/2" faceplate.
There’s a genuine Jacobs 1/2" capacity tailstock chuck with perfect jaws and action and a key to suit it.
There’s a new boxed live centre made in Poland and a dead centre plus a no2 to no1 morse taper adaptor.
The motor fitted is a single phase British one and the whole lathe is refurbished, repainted and tested.
The base drip tray is 48" long by 20" deep.
