Hi all, I am hopping for some help. I bought a boxford CBS lathe last year and have been learning the basics in my workshop. Now that I am finding my way around it I would like to step it up a little. My lathe does not have a screw cutting on it, I was hopping that some one out there may be able to point me in the right direction or even have the same lathe with the charts I need?

Thanks in advance.

Steve

Hi Stephen

Do you mean a Boxford CSB? If so then the necessary info is available in the Files section of the Boxford Lathe Yahoo group (you will need to join the group and yes, I know the user interface is very poor). However, you say there is no screw-cutting on the lathe. Does it have a leadscrew? If not then what you have is a training lathe and adding screw-cutting means finding, at minimum, a leadscrew with bearings, quadrant, an apron, tumbler set and changewheels.

This website will help with identification http://www.lathes.co.uk/boxford/

Whilst assumption is a dangerous thing, and not somewhere I normally go; I suspect the original post was missing the key word 'chart' between 'cutting' and 'on'.
