Dennis,

I could use a cover for the change gears and also the guard over the the left end of the back gear/spindle for the? 7-1/4" lathe.

Thanks, Ralph

Hi All

I am in the process of down sizing the heard of Dalton's at the Turk
works in Oregon. If any of you have a specific need of parts please
email me and I will see if I can find what you need. I have maybe 10
lathes that I would consider parts lathes so fee free to ask. Yes I do
have a few extra change gears but darn few as I haves sold off most of
my extras long ago.

Hi Ron

Your compound base went out in the afternoon UPS from the Turk works
in Hillsboro.

Hi Ron

What SB lathe do you have as there are a number of different ways

the compound is held on to the cross slide?

Start it at $1, the auction will determine it's worth.

In the lindsay cataloge is 'How To Run A Lathe' by the
South Bend. Covers a lot of basics and will tell you
more than enough to use your machine.

Hello All,
I was wondering if anyone knows of some real good Beginner Lathe
Operation Books. I use to work in a machine shop, but as a CNC
operator. I have the very basics of how to run one, but would like a
good reference/how-to guide. Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks,

I got the lathe in my new place. It is not setup yet. It is a Dalton
B-4 Lot 5 no. 440. Kind of strange that another one just got posted
also a lot 5 no. 330. I have a ton of extras, but have not had the
time to go threw them yet. Once it is set up, I will post some pics. Later

Dan

Hi everyone, Ijust picked up a Dalton six Type B-4.
The lot # is 5 and the serial # is 330
It apears to be in great shape, The ways are not pitted or dfamaged in
any way and all feeds work smooth. I am more interested in a combo
machine such as the one they sell at harbor freight then a collectable.
Could some one give me some idea of what this dalton is worth as I
will probably sell it to go after the combo. I will post a photo in
the photos section.
Thanks

I was thinking, 19 is such an odd number. You should up it to an even
20. :P Just kidding. Have fun!

Hi Nick

Thanks but do you really think a guy with I think 19 Daltons needs

any more????????????"-))))))))) I just sold a very nice one and it
only left a very small hole in the Turk works storage facility."-)))))

This next winter I am really going to concentrate on cleaning up the

peddle Dalton and finish the restoration of Greg Fosmarks Lot 6 serial
number 7014 and get it mounted on the cast iron cabinet that is
already done and sitting in my office at work. I will wont to go to
work on the 9 1/2 inch when I get back from my trip also. The fellow
I got that lathe from saved it from the dump as he said he stopped by
to see his mother and his step father was trying to get it into a
trailer so he could trash it. Josh is afraid that he has already
disposed of accessories and parts that went to it. I have been
invited to come over and look through all his grandfathers junk to see
if I can spot anything that belongs to the lathe. Seams his
grandfather had a number of lathes and he is not sure what goes to
what. That is if there is anything at all left. He did say there was
a drive for it as he knew his grandfather used it but he said he cant
seam to find the drive now and fears it has been taken to the dump
already. Shame as there goes the cone pulley.

On another note the Turk works museum is under renovation at Turk

Mfg. Business is a little slow right now so we put one of our guys to
work cleaning up the 20 by 20 room that will be setup as a little
museum. I was at work yesterday and Troy had it all scrubbed clean
and was repairing wall damage and masking things. I did pick up a
five gallon bucket of paint on the way to work so by the time I get
back from the trip East I should be able to start moving machines in
and hanging some of my collection of pictures of old machine shops and
line shaft setups. In this room I will be able to setup some of the
machines that can run. With the OSHA laws here in Oregon I have not
mounted any motors on most of the machines. If they have a motor I
either dont have a cord on it or a drive belt. Inspectors take a very
dim view of open belts even if you try and convince them its not a
production machine. There comments is it could run and could be used
so is unsafe. Smack a $25,000 fine. With things setup as a museum
then I will be able to run some of them. Machines like my Atlas and
SB shapers can be run as they have guards on them but not the open
belt machines. If anyone gets up to the Northwest do stop by and pay
us a visit.

My system guy has setup a new web site for Turk Mfg. and in the near

future there will be a link to the museum. I will keep you guys up to
date as to when that happens so you can take a look.

Hi Dennis,

I can vouch for Andy's belts. He made me one and it works

incredible. I believe the width is 15/16" not 1" which makes a big
difference if your machine and countershaft are slightly miss aligned.

If you're heading to NJ....I may know of a few other Daltons for

sale!

Andy I know is really busy right now so I will answer for him.

The belt on Andy's lathe is a composite of several materials. None of
which I have any idea of what they are. Andy came across a vast
storehouse of these belts a couple of years ago and has offered them
to anyone that needed a new belt. A lot of us are using Poly V belts
or as the automotive industry calls them Serpentine belts. Here is a
picture of a very compact drive setup I used on John Glands Dalton
that I rebuilt for him. This drive is a little Atlas and a lot of
home brew. Bottom line is its very compact and worked really well.
If I remember correctly we had this lathe mounted on a 20 inch wide bench.

On another note I will be leaving on the 19th for the trip East

to collect the Dalton up in Wisconsin and also the only known 9 1/2 by
48 in Oakmont Pa. I will also be picking up some parts to another one
that Dave Kirk has been storing for me. Not all sure what is left of
that poor Dalton after Dave got done ravaging it for parts for his
B-4."-))))

Hello everybody,

I have a quick question. I was on the Oldarn website when I came
across pictures of Andy Sargent's B-4. What caught my

attention was the

belt on the unit. It is green and yellow. Here is the link...

even

though I think everyone has seen it
. Is this still

a leather

belt with a felt like underside? Does anyone know where I

could get

this belt? The one on mine is making me a bit nervous. It

seems that

the staple or whatever it is has a rather large gap. Thanks

for the

help.

Dan Lane

Dear Andy,
Wow, Thanks! I don't have the lathe in my possession yet, but
as soon as I do, I will get you the dimensions of the belt. I will
also include some pictures. It seems to be in amazing shape. Thanks
again!

Dan
