Re: Threading Gear Confusion
Thanks Robert for the background on yourself. I myself have always wondered where and how you became so knowledgeable on these wonderful machines. You are amazing. Bob Duvall

Re: Threading Gear Confusion
I forgot to add that the ¡°101¡± in the Atlas change gear part numbers being the same as the ¡°101¡± in the Sears part numbers is just a coincidence. Until the Clausing hands began to get the

Re: Threading Gear Confusion
Ignoring the gears for the 6¡±, which are smaller, between 1932 and today, Atlas/Clausing made two versions of the change gears for the 9¡±, 10¡± and 12¡± lathes. From 1932 until about 1937 they

Super lathe bench
I was just doing some research [wasting time] on YouTube and came across a guy building a table top using concrete mortar mix. It is impressive, because it is so easy and would make a great lathe

Threading Gear Confusion
I am confused by the gears for my Atlas 10F lathe Almost all my threading gears (called change gears?) have an 'A' after the number designation, like 24A. I also have a 24. The width of the thread is

Re: My Frankenstein Atlas
I think Roberts advice is sound: get a new headstock if you want to operate the lathe as originally intended. With that said, the mods you described ¡°sound reasonable¡± if there is in fact a VFD

Re: My Frankenstein Atlas
Robert, I was really down and out when I saw what had been done. This is the sort of dumb jury rigged things people sometimes do who work on there own cars. I never expected this from a machinist.?

Re: My Frankenstein Atlas
The headstock at least certainly qualifies for ¡°Frankenstein¡±. The gear and whatever that is under it did not come from Atlas. My guess is that the PO had an eddy current sensor sensing the very

Re: Quick Change Post changed to lathe color
Actually, over the 21 years that Sears sold the 3/8¡± bed 12¡± and sleeve bearing 6¡± lathes, they changed the color maybe every two or three years. We¡¯ve seen several shades of green, blue, red
