Selling my Atlas 10f and bought a Boxford lathe.

[Stephen Tegner]

Hi guys, after I finished restoring my Atlas I saw a boxford lathe for sale for the same price I paid for the Atlas (800 USD), I decided to buy it because it has a few nice featues like a v-bed, roller bearing headstock and most important of all the quick change gearbox. I hope it's not sacrelige sacrilege to mention Boxfords here but anyway this is what the machine looks like and I wanted to say I have had fun restoring the Atlas and chatting with you guys. I'll check in now an then to keep up on Atlas news.

Regards
Steve

You did well. That Boxford is a fine lathe. Looks like you will have it looking brand new soon.
