Discovered as small photographic negatives in the Myford factory Archive during 2018, the existence of the "Euro-Ten" version of the ML10 was previously a mystery. A top-of-the-range version, it was based on the long-bed Speed 10 and fitted to that model's seldom-found cabinet stand with the addition of a large splash back with tapered side plates. Instead of individual guards over the backgear and headstock and motor belts, a single and very large gas-strut supported cover was fitted this leaving, when closed, just the chuck exposed - it too having a hinged guard mounted on the cover's front face.
Factory-fitted electrical wiring and safety switchgear appear to have been part of the standard equipment, this arrangement including two button-operated emergency stop buttons, one on the switch panel and another at floor level.
While the pictures below show "balanced" handwheels used on the apron and end of the leadscrew, for sale to educational and training establishments, these were replaced by a full-circle type.
Although a number of the lathes are known to have been sold to schools and colleges, production figures are unknown and publicity literature yet to be found. Hence, if you have an example of the rare Myford Euro-Ten, the writer would be very interested to hear from you..
