Lot 4 lathe and tooling … free
Lot 4, no. 256. Two three jaw chucks, a lantern tool holder and what is likely a shop made tool holder (by the previous owner). I believe all the change gears are here, as well and a collet closer (twist to close).
The lathe was given to me, so I’m passing it along the same way.
Pickup from the northern Chicago suburbs.

Now its time for phy therapy and review of cortisone shots.
Thanks for any reply.

Re: WTB: new chuck for Lot 5
HI Dennis,? Since I really do not know what one looks like for the dalton ( Steady Rest ) I thought it might be two seperate pieces ( Guess not )--- Is it all one piece ?? Could you take a picture of yours for me so that I would know what I am looking for Dennis ? It would be a great help . Thank you Terry

Hi Terry As to steady rest the only one I have is on one of my display lathes and as such I don't want to get rid of it just yet.? As to a base are you talking about? legs and a chip tray or a cabinet style base?? Not sure just what you're wanting. Dennis
Dennis you did not happen to look through your goodies and see if you had a Steady Rest or maybe the Base to fit a B4 30" Lot 4 have you ? Terry? St.Petersburg Florida

Re: Dalton type B-6 for sale
Sorry, Terry, it sold last weekend. Young guy, in Tillamook, Oregon. He is probably going to but the smaller Lot 6 also, in a couple of weeks. The smaller one is also a Lot 6, but the spindle thru hole is smaller than that B version. His name is Chuck and I will give you his phone number via pm if you'd like to call him.

Re: Dalton type B-6 for sale
Dan do you still have the Dalton Lathe ?? If you do could I ask a favor as in some pictures of the steady rest I see on the lathe. I have a B4/30" Dalton and have been looking for Steady Rest but not to sure what I am looking for if that makes sence. Dennis said he has never found anything that will fit except the one made for the Dalton. It would be nice to see what I am looking for. Thank you for your time. Terry St.Pete Florida

My brother bought this years ago from Dennis Turk, and it has one of Dennis' reproduction thread dials on it. Cabinet with drawers not included. I think Glen was going to finish it up and use it, but now I just want to sell it to help my sister-in-law out. Asking $500 for everything shown except the cabinet. I wanted members here to have 1st shot on it before listing it on Craigslist or eBay. I'd prefer not to ship, since I've seen so many disasters caused by careless shippers of lathes, shapers, etc. Not to mention prohibitive shipping rates. Dennis can chime in with any additional information on this.? It is currently? in Tillamook, Oregon, but I may bring it over to my shop in Salem within a week or two.
Thanks,???
