how does it mount on the Atlas 10"?

Bryan, I have a hex (production) turret that has 5/8" holes for the tools. I wonder if that knurl tool isn't intended to be used in such a turret and fed in axially along the lathe centerline? Bill

Along with an Atlas 10F I purchased, the owner had 3 boxes of assorted items that he believed went with the Atlas. He was the second owner and didnt know much about it. As I have made my way through

Woke up earlier this morning than I intended to, but not bad for how my gut has been feeling the last few days. Looked at the tool post grinder I've been watching on ebay for a few days, and saw the

I three pointed my Atlas lathe years ago and it doesn’t turn a taper. The makers designed and built an exceptional product that holds tolerance all these many years later. I would assume most lathe

The reason I suggest trueing up the tailstock first is that it is relatively easy to do. If you do that and can cut a Rollie’s Dad test bar to a tolerance that you are happy with, then you are

Be creative. Start with a fender washer and end with a piece of wax paper. There is no way to know what you will need as it depends on the flatness and rigidity of the mounting surface in addition to

I have 3 of those Starrett levels now , I was lucky enough to buy they right . it sure is handy not having to move the level . I just set them in place & walk away for a while , after their at peace

Jon, I worked on mine until a sheet of paper on the low side of the 6" level made it the high side. Good enough cause the lathe wasn't watching the bubble J Greg

I nabbed an ebay cheap precision level a few years back. It may or may not be as good as they say, but I’m not on a boat and it sure helped my lathe. One sheet of paper will take the 6” level

Harbor Freight sells a kit of U-shaped shims.? They are intended for auto body work.? The thinnest is .016" and the thickest is .125".? I think the cost is about $10. Shimming my Craftsman 12x24

Be careful Animal, this can lead you into unforeseen situations! I ended up buying measuring tools to the point that I now own a 4 foot granite straightedge that I can barely carry. And strangely

Be careful animal,

eventually the lathe leveling conversation leads to machinist levels . Having more than one level can certainly speed things up . If you have any pawn shops in your area they can be a good source for

IMO and nothing more, a perfect mounting would entail a rigid, two point mount under the headstock, that could be shimmed for leveling and a single point center mount at the tailstock rigidly attached

That is the hard way of doing it. Fix the bed first. Then worry about the tailstock. If your home's foundation is crooked, the walls are going to be crooked too. Same with lathes. The bed is the

First of all, don’t assume that the bed is twisted. A lathe with a straight bed does not need to be level. My suggestion is to fasten the bed to the bench with only three mounting points and washers
