    The ML10 was the no frills lathe MYFORD made . It was aimed at the buyer who could not afford the better equipped ML7 or the Super 7 . The headstock bearings on the ML10 ran in the cast iron rather than white metal . A ML10 would still be a good lathe and that one on EBAY looks nice . Mike

    In working condition although the table is worn & has back lash & r8 collet. No coolant pump or plumbing 3 phase. All inspections welcome
    Sounds like he'd probably tell you if ya asked.

    Mike, the ML10 was much smaller and lighter than the ML7. The ML10 was only 53kg without the motor, whereas the ML7 was between 100kg (ML7-R) and 111kg (ML-Super7) without motor and stand. Also the ML10 had no gap bed and no Norton box. Price-wise as I recall, the ML10 was only half as dear as the Super7.

    Now regarding the headstock bearings, yes up to 1978 the spindle ran directly in the split headstock iron castings, with only 840rpm max spindle speed. For one year from 1978 to 1979 the spindle had grease packed roller bearings capable of much higher rpm, but still geared for max 840rpm. From 1979 onwards, the ML10S (S for Speed) came then with roller bearings and a maximum speed of 2000rpm. The latter is of course a much more desirable model, unless one mainly intends working with cast iron.

    The one with the ebay link seems a rare bargain given the condition and accessories. I feel sorry with the seller - obviously loved it and looked after it well, now must sell for health reasons. It sems to be the low speed version though, because the S version had a large red on white "speed 10" sign on the diagonal top cover. Where the low speed model had instead a sign depicting both step pulleys and corresponding 6 speeds.

    See also http://www.lathes.co.uk/myfordml10/ for more info. I happen to still have the German language Myford sales flyers from 30 years ago for the ML10, ML10S and ML7. Back then I choose to buy the Emco instead, because of the greater center height and the more modern design. By the way, an interesting feature of the ML10 is the lever operated dog clutch for the leadscrew, a retro-fittable optional extra (but missing on the lathe in the eBay link).

    Anyone in Perth and wants a cheap quality TIG?

    These have a good reputation and it comes with everything you need, but you need a solid three phase outlet to power it and room to store it and muscle to move it. Cheap.

    Going by the description, the seller has absolutely no clue what she/he is selling... All he/she has done is cut and paste from wikipedia.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocollimator
