Dividing Head - doubleboost - 07-20-2013

Hi
Lads
I am going to build a dividing head
As described in
The Amateur's Lathe
by
L.H.Sparey

I will be doing some video as I well
Made a start on the pattern for the base
This is slightly larger than the one on the book as my Boxford has a higher centre height ,than the Myford 7 it was originally built for
