Don’t ask why but I’ve just bought this:

I’m going to strip it down and rebuild it. As if I don’t have any other projects on the go!
It’s a Myford ML4 (I think) which they stopped making in about 1946 so I guess that makes it something like 60 years old. I know pretty much diddly-squat about lathes so if anyone has any useful information they’d like to share I’d appreciate some help.

Looks like an ML4, I’ve just bought a very early (1934 ish) ML2. Contact me ij1000 at hotmail.com if I can help.
