Thanks, there is a 10" turret tail stock there, just wondered if it would work on my 12" as is.

It will not be vertically aligned with the spindle center. You might be able to machine something to add to the base and raise it up, or just buy the right tailstock. Lots of them come up on eBay.
Will a 10" Atlas / Craftsman tailstock fit on a 12" tailstock base? Is the only difference the thickness of the base?
