Just so I know...

So I've been operating under the assumption that the tapers on my
lathe are Morse... The tailstock takes and holds Morse #2's very nicely, plus the lathe came with the Morse fittings which is where the assumption came from... The thing that is making me wonder a little is when I tried to slide a #3 in the spindle, I got the sense that it wasn't quite right... Now of course that might mean I just need to ream it a bit to clean it up, but thought I'd ask if Dalton was using one of the other tapers before I go and buy a reamer... As a side note to Dennis, I got the plates fitting nicely now. Just had to chase the spindle a hair for whatever reason... Probably a slightly rolled thread I wasn't seeing. Thanks! |

of the spindles I have worked on.? Seams the spindles are soft enough that
either they are burred up or someone has driven a taper in to fare and swelled
the end of the spindle or just some thing seems to get them out of shape.?
I have one spindle that has been reamed so many times that its getting really
thin on the very end and a 3 morris just falls way to fare into the
spindle.? But be assured it is a number 3 morris.
