Myford ML10 Lathe
Myford ML10
Launched in 1968 as an inexpensive small lathe for the model engineer and ran until 1993 when it was replced by the Diamond 10.
A popular model Myford ML10 came as a 3.1/4” x 13” Imperial, Single Phase, back geared screwcutting lathe, with standard equipment comprising: drive unit, motor pulley, motor vee belt, motor belt guard, changewheel guard, headstock vee belt, headstock drive guard, 6” diameter faceplate with drive peg, set of 15 changewheels two D.E. spanners, Allen key, soft centre for headstock, hard centre for tailstock, oil gun, screwcutting chart.These lathes had a taper roller bearing headstock, often with a short bed bench dmitting 330mm (13”) between centres, with imperial graduations, and a 1/3HP single phase motor with a reversing push button starter.
When buying second hand be prepared to fund the bed and saddle being reground as well as new chuck and ¾ phase motor as these are the critical points of wear in older machines. This can be a costly process and worthy of costing before you buy a used example.
