Graham Mfg Co Double Knurling tool
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 the items, I came across this tool. Many of the items are not for the lathe and I am scratching my head with this one. Is this knurling tool meant for installation in the tail stock?? The tail is not tapered, it is 5/8" round the entire length on mine, and is centered where the two knurled intersect.?? I loaded my pic also here is an example (the only example) I could find of the tool online.? The item is sold but the picture is better quality than my phone pic.? Any help appreciated. Bryan |
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 in Boulder? On Sun, Jul 23, 2023 at 12:19?PM Bryan <byoumans80@...> wrote:

This knurling tool was used in screw machines and turret lathes. This could be used on your lathe if desired. A collet chuck arbor in the tailstock would work. A boring holder in a quick change tool post would also be good! The great thing about this tool is by moving the knurls you can coin, diamond, and single angle knurl in either direction! |
Steven: thanks for the information and especially the suggestions.? I'm very new to this so the specific ideas to make it work are very helpful. Bryan On Sun, Jul 23, 2023, 7:49 PM Steven Nederhiser <7101sned@...> wrote:
