Re: Ideas on getting free/inexpensive stock/scraps
As others have said, eBay and McMaster-Carr.? The material cost is small considering the many hours of machining that goes into a project. And I can usually find exactly what I want with little waste.?
I keep my eye on estate auctions and occasionally find metal stock, but bidders are willing to pay a lot - even past new market value sometimes. I have tried my local welding shop for drops.? They want $100 for me to just walk in their door.
It is good to have some small stock on hand - assorted 6061 and 12L14 rounds, assorted drill rod, etc.? But for the larger stuff I buy only what I need for a project. I don't want to accumulate stuff that I will probably never use.?

Re: Atlas Lathe Parts For Sale. 4 Jaw chuck VME chuck, like new used once, $125 plus shipping. Contact R Eggleston 417-840-6258 CTZ.
I assume that it is 1 1/2" x 8 thread, suitable for mounting on an Atlas 10" lathe, and that the key is with it.
Please? advise the cost of shipping to Manchester, Maine via U.S. Post or FedX (my experience with UPS has been absolutely terrible - the last delivery consisted of the container and paperwork - with them taking no responsibility for the loss of the contents).
Please advise shipping and if payment by check is O.K. (you will be withholding shipment until the check clears your bank).
God bless you all and best regards, Roger Francis Karl Manchester, Maine

Re: Atlas Lathe Parts for Sale Drawbar Collett set with 7 colletts from 1/32 to3/8 inch, excellent condition--$199 plus shipping.
Hi Robert,
Wondering if this a lever-operated collet closer or the more common handwheel style? I'm trying to find a lever type for one of my Atlas 10's.
A couple of photos would be great.
Thanks!
God bless you,

Hi everyone,
I have replied to others posts but never(?) posted a project of my own. I accumulated a Craftsman 6" a few years ago. Not running, and missing some parts. I disassembled much of it, but not until now did i have bench space for it. I thought i would get it running and find an aspiring chip maker to bestow it on - maybe! i have a 10K at home, and access to anything else I need at work.
At first look, It's missing the gear case assembly, counter shaft drive pulley, and the motor pulley. I think someone may have run it direct from a motor, which I will have to source eventually. I'm not planning to restore it, just make it run.?
Wadda you think?

Re: Atlas 10 TV36 4 step Drive Pulley
Steve,
I had a look at your webpage and instagram. Beautiful work. I especially like those gates shown on your page, and the prize winning scale on insta. Bravo, Bryan
Hey Mike
Didn't even cross my mind that a work around could be single pulleys of the required sizes just screwed together.
I'll take a look at the YT link as well.?
Genius, thank you!

Re: Atlas 10 TV36 4 step Drive Pulley
Pulleys are a real good first project . Ya can make then one at a
time & just hold them next to each other with the set screws
on the shaft .

Thanks for having a search, Bill.
Shipping from the US to UK can be, interesting. Might be cheaper
to find someone who could produce the pulley for me.
Definitely out of my skill range at this point in time.
Much appreciated.

There are VFDs available for single > three phase use.

Hi Mike
It's a single phase AC 550w motor RPM 1425
My workshop is only single phase, and I've never had the
pleasure of having a motor with a VFD to understand how those
things work.
Thanks

Re: Atlas 10 TV36 4 step Drive Pulley
Hey Brian
That's what I thought as well. The pulley does move but the belt is far too tight and won't lock if it is at any other position apart from the one shown in the picture.?
A 3 or 4 step would seem to be ideal to give me some level of speed adjustment.?
Cheers
