Thanks for the info on the tool post from Amazon, did you have to do any mods for this or is it just a bolt on and go?
Thanks

Also note there is a spacer under the tool post on the Lot 5. You should not need this on your Lot 2.
Lot 2 lathes were built in 1913 and are six inch swing lathes where later lathes in this series were 7 1/4 swing.? As to parts I have a few Lot 2 parts left from two parts lathes I have.. As to a tool post the OXA size quick change tool post is your best bet.? I have used this size tool post on my Lot 5 as well as my Dalton Lot 6 lathe with great results. Pictures show an OXA on a Lot 5 lathe.? Also a picture of my Lot 2 serial number 36.?
Hello, I just came across a lot 2 Dalton lathe and want to add a tool post to this. I am looking for some feedback on what others have done. I’m also interested in a 4” Chuck for this.? Does anyone have parts for these lathes?
I’m glad I found this group so I can ask more questions pertaining to these vintage, unique lathes.
