new to machining got boxford 125 tcl and 260 vmc any spares would help

Where have you bought the SW?. I've bought the 165HMC some weeks ago. The machine is running but I can't get a copy of the original SW.
The other thing is, do you have the wiring diagram of your machine.
I have the diagram from the 190VMC, but this machine don't have the tool turret of the 260. So I don't know how its wired. I know only, the motor must be a DC-Motor and can only turn for 45° until a cam (in fact a simple hole) on the underside of the turret stops the rotation. But I want to know if the switch goes to the controllercard or to the control unit.

I must read my documentation of my little Emco lathe. Somewhere should be drawings and programs (you must change G2 and G3 and maybe negate all X-Positions) of chesspieces.

The SW of theBoxford machines is some 20 Years old and the control board have only the parts, which are standard at these time.
I don't know which processor they use, but I fear nothing better than a 6800 or a 80(1)86. My Emco has only a 6502 in it, but is some 5 Years older.
