Subject: Re: [atlas-craftsman IO] 10F lathe? Look on the tail stock end of the bed there is a plate it will tell what you have?

I say About because we have a gap from a 10D @ 008635 and a 10F @ 009552.? The other significant differences between the two (3/4¡± dia. lead screw, 2-piece carriage, power cross feed, etc.) are common upgrades.? The tailstocks are also different, but we don¡¯t know for certain that the change over coincided exactly with the model change.? And of course, it¡¯s an easy swap.? The headstock changed in 1942 and most 10F¡¯s will have the newer one.? But not all.? And judging by what happened with the MK2, all of the changes probably didn¡¯t happen on the same day. ? Robert Downs ? ? Does anyone in this group have a 10F lathe in the configuration as it
was originally sold? I guess the catch is how does one know it is a 10F?
I wouldn't have known my Atlas is a 10F were it not for being told it is
one.
