Thank you Dennis!
I have been advised that the South Bend book is excellent.

Oh My Gil .... are you ever in deep, deep trouble with all that wonderful plunder!
The Myford lathes aren't that common in the USA, so it's great you got the important lathe tooling in your package: steady rest, 4 jaw chuck, face plate, etc. I think you have spindle collets and a milling attachment as well. It's great you started with such a rich selection of tooling as it can get expensive quickly.
I had to look-up the tiny Rusnok milling machine. Never even seen one of those online before.
More stuff from Don....

It appears Gil, that you'll not be needing to get much in the way of accessories nor tooling for your new lathe and mill, and perhaps not much in the way of stock materials to begin working with them either!
Hi Daniel, I believe you're right.
More than enough to keep me busy learning.

Thanks, Daniel. I had in my mind searching up Myfordboy.
Late to the party here Gil, but what a wonderful lathe and assortment of tooling to get.
Thanks, Jim..!! You're welcome to join the party anytime!
I have already done a couple small tasks with the lathe.
