280 synchro cross-slide.

Pete. · Post by **Pete.** » Tue 03 Mar , 2009 19:56 pm

Can anyone supply me with a drawing for the cross-slide on the 280 synchro? I want to make a replacement for mine with tee-slots rather than a compound. I have the material but I could do with a drawing to get the dovetail angles & dims etc exactly right.

Drawing numbers:

Saddle Arrangement - should be SL100/500 (MVS100/500 and BVS 100/500 for the 280VS machines), and should confirm the numbers below.

Cross-slide (on 280VS manual & electric, so probably also for the Synchro) MVS100/506

Cross-slide Gib strip - ML100/508B (drawing No. may be ML100/508, as the top-slide gib is numbered ML100/508A, possibly on the smae sheet)

Hope this helps.

Oh well, the consistent numbering theory doesn't always work!

I'll check at home to see if I have a copy of MVS 100/506.

Andy (Admin) - did you find any of the SL.... drawings? I seem to recall that I could not easily find them, and only came across them when looking for something else as they were not labelled on the drawer front. There was a pile of large drawings in one drawer that were folded over, not flat. Could be with those.

There are some SL100 SL150 dwgs scattered among all the BVS ones...couldn't find SL100 / 500 though

I found my paper copy of MVS 100/506 - so it must be in the Denford drawing chests somewhere......

Unfortunately my copy is very poor, so I'll need to go over the lines & dimensions in pencil before it will scan or photograph well enough to be readable. May take a day or 2 before its done.

First part of drawing added to downloads.

Will add other bits when I get time to ink them up.
