Tubal Cain (aka Tom Walshaw) and George Thomas really gave me an insight to engineering - and I still refer to their work today.
Sorry to take so long to reply.GHT described the modification over 5 parts in the Model Engineer starting from November 1977. I think he also covered it in one of his workshop manual books that effectively contains all of his enhancements to the lathe and other bits in the workshop. GHT was a giant in the ME world. It was said that he spent so much time making tools etc and was never able to complete a 5 inch gauge loco he was building - others might shed more light on that.It covered both the Myford ML7 as well as the Myford Super 7. He then went on to show the modification over several iterations of the Super 7 cross slide.One of the best upgrades to my dear old Myford Super 7 circa 1962/63During my apprenticeship days in the mid1970's Tubal Cain (aka Tom Walshaw) and George Thomas really gave me an insight to engineering - and I still refer to their work today.All the bestDerek
