I can't swear it will get you what you need, but I think it improves the chances a bunch! ;)?

You had way more info than I expected, too! Good on you!

Re: Cross Slide Handle

 

Might want to tell him the length & hole sizes, ball diameters and such other info, maybe part numbers if you have that info,? so he can figure out what could work of what he has.

Can't get by.? If you happen to have a compound handle for an Atlas/Craftsman 6" lathe, any chance you could pull it and send it, for a price of course??

Re: Cross Slide Handle

 

I have a bunch of atlas handles some are new. They are from Atlas press in Kalamazoo. I am two miles north of I 94 at exit 66. Also machines and tools. Come and take a look.


Re: Cross Slide Handle

 

Yes, I could have, if I wanted to take the time.? I even have the factory drawing.? But given what else is going on in my life right now, better to buy one.? I may have to make one for the compound given how scarce they are.? I'll first try to repair the broken one, but I think that has a low chance of success.?

Can't you make one? Even without the balls.

Subject: [atlas-craftsman IO] Cross Slide Handle
?
Found and bought (eBay) a replacement, original cross slide handle for my Craftsman MK2 6" lathe.? So glad as the so-called replacement handles I'd found thus far are just too large and?interfere with the carriage handle.? Both cross slide and compound were broken, which we all know is common and they are difficult if not impossible to find, at least in metal.?

Still looking for a compound handle.?

Any chance of plans/parts/diagram?? I would like to try to duplicate something like this (eventually!).

Any chance you could share a pic or two of your setup?


Re: Lathe tachs

 

Hi All,

FWIW, I've been using a $12 digital tach on my Atlas 10" lathe for quite
a while (still powered run by the original 9 volt battery, but I switch
it off when not in use), along with a used treadmill motor. I'll never
go back to changing belts! Super-handy and fast to just dial up the
RPM's you want and get to work.

Hope that's helpful.

God bless you and yours,

Schematic, parts, and code you are trying to use?

Which Arduino board?

What sensor(s)?

Are you using exactly the parts described?

What does it do instead of what it should do (failure mode)?

What are you using for a display?

And yes, quite possible that something got left out of the necessary
details published online.

I've been thinking something similar for my 618, and I do have
background in the technology if not the specific application, (robotics,
mechatronics, instrumentation, and controls) but this qualifies me for
nothing in the machining world so this I just listen in and learn.

I do have some Arduino hardware on hand.
