Hi, I'm new to the group. I've done virtually no machining since high school (over 40 years ago), but in the last year have acquired an Atlas 618, an identical Sears lathe with the milling attachment

Thanks guys for the advice.? My screws are brass so should not mark the screw. After doing some measuring last night on the compound, the dome bolt head holding the bearing end plate on, really

When i installed my bigger dials I made my own thumb screws, i happen to have some stainless 3/8 dia. rod the screw i believe is 8/32 instead of knurling i used the tool bit and cut lines in the head

Hi Jodi, This is my solution. As "buffer" I use, between the spindle and the screw, a small piece of copper to prevent damage. Best regards, Leo Op ma 21 jan. 2019 om 14:20 schreef Jody

they say that the lathe is the only machine that can make it self . I live near a Western Pacific RR Museum that has the largest inventory of rolling stock https://www.wplives.org/ ya can actually

That looks cool.Some of the old big stuff wouldn't be so easy to reproduce today.I've been to the Illinois railway museum,? I'm in the neighborhood. They have some very cool things that make you

Check out the photos on this site . I hope to visit this site someday https://knightfoundry.com/ they have self guided tours ??? ??? animal

Now that sounds like a good size lathe! Now I prefer smaller work.? I do pretty often start with a 75lb piece and when I'm done it's reduced to maybe 12lbs!?I'm happy to have a trainee at work? to

That reminds me of the largest lathe I was ever allowed to push the START button on. It was or had been a steam locomotive driver lathe. I don’t recall for certain what the swing was. But greater

That was kind of a "medium" size boring bar. Don't remember the dimensions but probably 8" diameter, maybe 6 or 8 feet long with a #50 taper. Can you see a series of slots? They're for the cutting

You could also get some flat head screws and put a little counterbore in the bracket. That should get the screws recessed out of the way. Jon

I think so too.? I may have to make it a little more low profile than the first one and make sure I get the threaded length right. Although if I ever go to a larger dial, I will to make fasteners

So I didn't adhere to the old adage of measure twice cut once.? Actually I didn't even measure in one instance. I had some 1/2" bar left over from another project I did for a guy, which was some

Nice pic.? What was that shaft for? Were you measuring the OD or what? "Inquiring minds want to know". -Jody

Tks Dan , I registered but havn't been cleared to access yet , but My call to my bud lookin for the motor terminal cover plate prompted him to clean out his tool box & a phone call this am with a "I

Right. The steady rest (at least in the smaller sizes) has three adjustable jaws @ 120 degrees. The follow (or follower) rest has two jaws @ 90 degrees, one at TDC and one 90 degrees to that one on

those are both steady rest's , they both clamp to the bed/ways of the lathe & stay in the same place until you unbolt them & move them . a follower rest would mount on the saddle & move up & down the
