Rebuilding this atlas of mine has been a steep learning curve but there is light at the end of the tunnel. The shims that were on the carriage/saddle were 10 thou at the back and 17 thou on the front. There was a lot of slop so decided to try and eliminate it. I have ended up with no shims at the back and 12 thou at the front. this has eliminated the slop down to between 1 and 2 thou both front and back and middle. What is bothering me is that i have reduced the back by 10 thou and the front by half that amount so have i introduced twist in the saddle / carriage . Also does the carriage need shims to protect surfaces.

I am a total newbie learning his lathe. I found out from this group previously that the quick change to hold her that I would need for my atlas 10 inch Lathe would be an AXA 250–111. If I am remembering correctly I was given a link and found it on eBay. Question 1: I went to eBay and found various options and makers. Should I be concerned about the unit I buy being Bostar or Labworks, etc.? Question 2: Knurling tool - two types - which would you recommend? I see two options within the Bostar brand: A. a Bostar unit selling an 11 piece set where the knurling tool is a a 250-110 that has the knurling integrated on one end and says the unit, "Can also turn with bits up to 1/2." https://www.ebay.com/itm/281827797886 B. Bostar has a 10 piece set with its knurling attachment being a separate unit that fits into a 250-101: https://www.ebay.com/itm/283687065990 Merry Christmas!

im trying to line up the gear on the cross feed screw with the power feed mechanism in the apron. The knob you pull out to engage power feed for the cross feed should the knob turn regardless of its position (engaged/disengaged)

Hi everyone, A machine engraving company next door is liquidating, but time is short. i just went over to visit and the scrap man is coming this week. It's in Woburn MA. Lots of milling machine vises and other stuff. Inspection tables and tools. A Bridgeport and a Sunmax lathe. Anyone around this part of the country? You can call me at 1-617-797-9930. Just trying to help a nice guy, and save some good iron:) Payson.

With our new facility, we've upgraded our water treatment system... The boss has asked me to list it - Mods, it's not Atlas/Crafstman, so just advise if I should remove. This is an Aqua Safe WTS-30-AJ It's in very good condition, just removed a couple weeks ago - I was told to ask $800. Located Islip, NY I have a forklift to load it, though it is not heavy. (I'm about to pallet and shrink-wrap it too)

Would any one know where to ger a L6 1007 banjo for a quick change gear box ?

Finally got my mill in my machine room & under power . Wondering if anyone here has come up with a DIY powerfeed that could be used on a mill . thanks animal

?Hi, My name is Cliff and I was gifted an Atlas MF Mill. I’m still trying to learn more about the mill and because it’s missing a LOT of parts and others are broken, I’m trying to figure out if it can be made useable without spending a fortune. I’d like to end up with a “nice” mill, but i’m more interested in function than form. I have no interest in selling it. i want to use it. This is it, as received. I’m kind of happy a few parts were missing after lifting it into my truck bed…lol

Hello! I am very new to the Atlas/Craftsman lathe in fact I picked up a lathe last weekend. I have not touched a lathe in 50 years so am a bit rusty with everything! I have ordered a couple of books to learn from to help bring me up to speed. It had no tooling with it and I am trying to find some I can purchase. The lathe I bought did come with a toolholder but nothing else. {see photo} Can someone direct me to where and what I should purchase to get started. Both Grizzly and Little Machine Shop have tool packages however I am not sure what would work for me. Can someone provide me with some direction? Thanks in advance. Joe

hi all, I am at the stage where i think i can put the headstock back together. As allways with these things i have done some research into what grease to use for the timkin bearings and ending up learning far too much and still none the wiser. what grease should i use please? many thanks

hi all, The lathe i have came with a home made tool post that holds 4 toolbits at once. however to change between the 4 bits you have to turn the tool post round and some how get it back square i presume (im a complete newbie). there are 4 allen head bolts holding the tool bit in so i assume i would have to undo those and reset everything up if i wanted a different bit. All this to say what quick change toolpost with the dovetail holders would work and is it worth spending a couple of hundred pounds? many thanks Ben

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 don’t want to cause problems.

Anybody seen one like this? No part numbers
