Hi Rance,
After I bought my 7x I placed and order on LMS for accessories.
Being in Oz I tried to include all I could think of to minimise
freight. Nope. I missed things. Just taken delivery of another load.
Apart from obvious items I now have #2644 clamps for the faceplate,
#1222 chuck studs & nuts, #1655 oil fittings for the leadscrew (my
Sieg doesn't come with those), #1773 spare dial springs, #2633
spring to make the tailstock clamp stay put, some pitch gauges and a
protractor for setting the compound.
Have I padded your order up yet? <G>

Well, I OFFICIALLY went down to HF today and ordered my 8x12.
Prices
in the mags are now $529, and in-store prices show $549. Well, I
had
made previous arrangements to use the 30% off coupon so even
though
it expired on Monday I was able to use it today. TTL out the door,
it
cost $380.09. I think I'm gonna be happy with it. I did NOT get
the
extended warranty, but I DO have a great big grin on my face. :D
I'm putting together what I want to order for accessories and
other
bits. I'm currently looking at:
(LMS ____) 1 Sync Tooth belt (550m)
(LMS ____) 1 V belt (0-720)
(LMS ____) Steady Rest
(LMS 1198) Follower Rest
(LMS ____) Face Plate
(LMS 2346) 5" 4-jaw chuck
(LMS 2925) Dial Ind. Test Ind., Mag. base
(LMS ____) Knurling Tool
(LMS 1189) Live Center
(LMS 1246) Boring Bar Set
(LMS 1261) Accessory set
(LMS ____) Cut off tool (parting tool)
Do I need extras:
Extra Center Drills (LMS 1230)
Turning Tool Set (LMS 2412)
Any suggestions or missing LMS part #s would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Rance
