Hi guys. Basically joining up as I've got my hands on and old boxford that needs some tlc and I'm fairly new to machines. I did a bit when an apprentice and also use the big lathe at work for guvvy jobs, but this is my first for home.



That's her in all her glory. Few bits missing such as tailstock but I'm hoping either the old boy I got it from has them buried in the shed or I can pick some up second hand.
It's currently still in the back of my van so I'm not sure of serial numbers yet but I will find out in due course.

All help and advice greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Joe, welcome from me...... :beer:

Nice Boxford you have, should look good once cleaned up...

Whereabouts in the NE are you?

Welcome Joe.
There's a Boxford user group on Yahoo in case you're not aware of it -

You'll find the serial number on top of the bed at the tailstock end. You can reference it here -
