Ah, I had never heard of?Van Norman style QCTP so I chekt it out online.? Yes, definitely would be easier to make than an Aloris style QCTP--however,? the ability to change quickly tools, is

It also appears curious that the 1941 catalog photo shows a steady rest with no cast in casting numbers??? Perhaps the early versions did not have the casting numbers ? Ray

For what it’s worth, my Atlas 10” steady rest has part numbers 10-326B cast in the bottom and 10-326T cast in the top. Also shown is the 1” high riser block I made to use this steady on my Atlas

How about making a milling attachment for your own lathe? Or making/buying a milling machine... OK. Yes, my addiction is showing! Hi! My name is Bill, and I'm a toolohaulic! Bill in OKC? William R.

True that, but you can make one of them, yourself, too. Probably easier to make a Van Norman style QCTP. Check out one (or all) of the Mini-lathe groups. The QTCPs for the 7x?? Mini-lathes are a bit

It certainly is curious that there are no casting numbers, but that is an exact copy of the Atlas 10" lathe steady rest # 10-325A Illustration from 1941 Atlas catalog:

Just checking, i have accessories left over from selling my lathe. My question is can i list them here for sale instead of Ebay? I saw the for sale forum and the last thing listed was in 2018. I just

I have a 10in. Steady that i have had for 30years and when i decided to sell it i discovered it didn’t have casting numbers on it. Has anyone seen these before. The casting is clean and looks

??? All of the 4 ways like in yer pic? that I have seen & used have? ball detentes in the bottom so the tool post moves in increments & is it's square on one side if ya use the detentes?? , ya

A machinist would not be able to buy the steel for the AXA tool holders, for the price of buying them ready made. You would also need to buy the set screws, the long screw, and the two height stop

I think the Myford style post would work well the 10" Atlas. Steve

How about buying a milling attachment for your lathe, then you can make your own holders. As you stated, that is what a machinist would DO. [email protected]> wrote:

I started out with a "rocker" style tool post.? It work but would often catch the bit and move it off center.? When I managed to get one of the 4 sided posts, I thot it was a wonder.? But after a
