Thread: Myford Super 7 Quick Change Gearbox issue

18/09/2023 10:31:39

Thank you very much indeed for your help, explains why I was 20% out!

I have a Myford Super 7 with a quick change gearbox. The problem is that the threads being cut are finer that expected, e.g. A1 should cut 8tpi but I'm getting roughly 10tpi, B5 should cut 22tpi but I'm getting about 26tpi.

I'm assuming that one of the gears in the train is wrong. Does anyone have to hand the standard gear sizes. What I have is as below:

Any help gratefully received.

Hi I'm James and have just joined the forum.

I have an early Myford Super 7 and Warco WM12 mini milling machine.

Most of the stuff I do revolves around motorcycles. I have a few post war BSAs that keep me out of mischief.
