Dear sir,

I have recently been in correspondence with Myford regarding an ML7 lathe that was my father’s (he died recently).  They suggested that we try contacting a local model engineering society to see if anyone would be interested in buying it and that its value would be around £500.  I therefore wonder if you would be kind enough to circulate this e-mail to your members, in case anyone would be interested.  The lathe is stored in a garage in Henleaze.  If contact could initially be made by e-mail, that would be helpful as the family is coming and going from the house.

Yours faithfully,
