Missing Feed Gear Bolt
My feed rate gearing is set at 0.0035" and I comfirmed that last night.? I was turning some stainless with a carbide index cutter and the finish was awful.? As a novice I'm still learning my metals

Guys, please keep your medical advice off the list. People are free to take or avoid medical treatment, as they please. Consequences go with those choices; live or die, get better or not. The only

Now the other side of the Levaquin coin. I took it as prescribed for 3 days, got up during the night to go to the bathroom, didn't get 1 step and slid into the floor ripping a toenail off OUCH. My

Probably, but that doesn¡¯t necessarily mean that it does the same out of a 10¡± or early 12¡±. However, although no one has ever commented on this, I can¡¯t see how it wouldn¡¯t. There are two

Yes, I did this, as the Babbit bearings in my first Atlas 10" F-series lathe were REALLY badly worn oval. You could take shims out, but you couldn't get rid of the oval issue. Oil would run out of the

Yes! I just wanted to comment that the warnings on the antibiotics may be scary, but the flouroqinolone group of antibiotics (Cipro and Levaquin are some of the top ones) are TRULY wonder drugs. I had

Re: Concern with my Spindle
Well, what weight oil, and exactly how fast is "immediately"? This would be in indication of badly worn bearings in a Babbit bearing lathe. But, the Timken bearings are exactly supposed to do this.

Re: Welcome to [email protected]
Or you could do as I did and buy a Timken headstock, thick way, QC lathe from the Git-Go! The advantage postulated for a conversion to thinwall bearings was the larger spindle bore! Bill in Boulder CO

Re: new guy - old 618
Robert, based on the number of articles in Popular Mechanics from the 30's and early 40's there would have been some number of hobbyists using lathes in that period. During WWII there was a government

Or make your own . . . . My first Atlas lathe was a well used 10D , and the shop it came from had had phosphor bronze bearing shells made for it , and it was surprisingly accurate . . . . served me

Re: Welcome to [email protected]
Yeah. But instead of today someone going to the trouble to convert a babbit headstock to some automotive split rod bearings, it would be quicker and cheaper to pick up a Timken bearing headstock and

The M6-114 collar should not be removed from the lead screw. If push comes to shove, you can remove the L2-682 Collar and M6-16 right lead screw bearing, remove the other gears from the M6-25 Bracket,

Re: new guy - old 618
No, that isn¡¯t true. Atlas designed and built the 9¡± Compound Drive lathe with babbit bearings and then in 1932 worked a deal for Sears to also sell them with some minor changes that Sears

Re: new guy - old 618
The comments in the MOLO only apply to babbit bearings. The purpose of the one clamping screw is to ensure that the bushings in the 101.07301 do not spin in the headstock. We do not want owners of the

Re: new guy - old 618
Timken bearings were available as early as 1935. They cost an additional $18.50. They may have been available in 1934. And yes, the advertising blurb does mention their advantages at higher spindle
