I finally got around to getting the threading operation worked out on my Dalton Six. ?After the multiple idlers specified on the charts for the Atlas changegear lathes, I couldn't imagine the Dalton

Hi Dennis, I am able to machine some things here. we are in our busy season now so i havent had many chances to work on the dalton but it is in assembly stage just going a little slower now

Glen I have several Dalton spindles on the shelf but the last Dalton Lot 5 I did as well as the peddle Dalton have almost new spindles in them as the lathes were basically new. Dalton spindles are

I bought a two 5" back plates for the Select recently, both were Myford, and for the very planning you had, a single pass bores the old threads out and one small finishing pass brings them to the 1

Hi Glen Say I have an idea that you and I could help these guys with back plates. I did some looking last night and there are some very good examples of back plates for up to 5 inch chucks on

As for high quality Vertex from Taiwan is very good for the money. Another is Gator, also Taiwan I believe. If you have the money a Bison chuck is good unless you believe the complaints people in PM

Here is a drawing we did a few years ago. This shows what a six inch back plate looks like. It can be made any outside diameter to fit whatever size chuck its being made for. Dennis Sent:

Yes, mine came with a 4” 3-jaw direct mount chuck. Any suggestions on how to make the adapter plate? I don’t have a mill and my other lathes are all watchmaker-sized. :) Any drawings for such a

Hi Ryan Is your current chuck a direct mount or does it have a mounting back plate? Also the standard size three jaw chuck for a Lot 3 4 and 5 was four inches. The standard offered 4 jaw was a

Hello, guys. I am reaching out to see if anyone has managed to come up with a good solution for replacing the chuck on their Dalton Lot 5. The chuck that came with my lathe was in pretty bad shape and

Ha I figured that’s what you didJ I have gears but they will have the larger bore. Gareth use a mic and measure the spindles that the gears rotate on. That is what we have to fit to. I may have

My mistake you are correct it’s actually measures 2” with a 0.376 bore, still 0.5” thick, I got my gears notes mixed up.

Hi Gareth I’m a bit puzzled at your gear size. Even a 12 pitch gear of 30 teeth is not as big as your saying yours is. Are you sure it 3.63 OD that’s a hug gear for a tumbler gear.

Hi Dennis, I hadn't had a chance to get to the shop for a while but I got some measurements the tumbler gears are 0.5" thick 3.63" OD, 0.65" bore and 30 teeth. still in the process of stripping paint

That is really weird Gerath I have never seen a forward reveres shifter gear with broken teeth. Worn yes but never broken. It’s a classic repair Gerath seen it on back gears a lot of times. OK

I measured the gib again it appears to be 65 degrees and 0.156” thick. I attached a picture of an interesting gear repair as well. Still working through painting parts. I do have one back plate

Hi Gareth. OK the spindle nose is the same as the Lot 6 and Dalton 9 inch. If you need a back plate I have one I think. As to the gib can you give me the angle on the edge of the gib. Also what is

Hi Dennis, I did some measuring the spindle is 1-7/8” and the lead screw is 1” with 8 threads per inch. The gib is 0.525” wide and 6-7/8” long. I would be interested in having an original

Gareth I am heading down to my Oregon coast place today. Will be off line till this evening. As to the gib all I need is the dimensions and I can make one if you don’t have a mill or know someone

I have been trying to figure out how it got here myself, I believe a local blacksmith owned it but how it got there im not sure. We are definitely out of the way here, I didn’t realize we are
