Hello,
I'm looking into the Myford VM-B mill drill for possible conversion.
I woulld like to know if we have any U.K. members that could supply
some good pictures of this machine and give an opinion of whether
this machine could be worthy of conversion. Every thing I've read on
this machine tells me Myford reworks the castings to their specs.
vastly improving the quality of the machine. It appears to be a bit
smaller than the RF-45 which is available here in the U.S. I would
like to especially like to see some pictures of the mechanism for
raising and lowering the head and a good close up of the dovetailed
column & head. Do any of the U.K. members have an opinion of this
machine? I'd like to hear it.
