Re: MSC 1336 taper attachment info needed
I will post some pics as soon as I get the main body of it cleaned up as it was lying under the lathe unused. Bed clamp is like new. Still hoping someone has one like it.

MSC 1336 taper attachment info needed
Just acquired a 1989 MSC 1336 lathe. It came with a taper attachment that was not installed on the lathe. The operators manual doesn't even show a taper attachment. It also has what I believe is the bed clamp for the taper attachment. My question is does anyone have a MSC 1336 with a taper attachmen...

Upcoming swap meets in northeast US
Anyone have any info on upcoming swap meets in the North East of US. I know it is late in the year but I was looking to go somewhere for a few days. Might as well make it worthwhile. Something on the order of a Cabin Fever expo. Thanks.

Re: Turning 1" axle between centers
Having an older lathe myself I found shafts cut to be smaller on one end. I blamed it on cross feed screw wear and backlash. It seemed that when cutting the tool was pulled into the cut. When I tightened the gib screws to the point of locking the cross slide problem solved. This may help in your cas...

Re: Atlas Lathe Model 3983 12 in
Cutting between centers using a lathe dog can be a major contributor to chatter. If that lathe dog can go back and forth in the slot chatter will happen. If your bull gear pin hole is that worn it will contribute to chatter. It should be a easy fix for you. (drill and bush) Since we can only guess w...

Re: New tooling on old lathe
Sure. I do it all the time. I get the brand X models made in china from CDCO. Dorian is out of my price range. Along with Aloris. I have had good luck using these. I get extra tool holders because they are inexpensive. The set screws are junk so I got a box of metric screws from Fastenal and fixed t...

Re: Help with SB large dial upgrades
Go to the practicalmachinist web site and search large dial upgrade. Everything you want to know. Also, if you are going to do it yourself watch youtube Mrpete222 or tubulcain (same guy). great video on making dials using a saw blade for indexing.

Re: Lathe tailstock alignment and drilling holes
You can be close to center but not center for many reasons. If you want true center after you center drill single point the hole with a tapered cutting tool set at 60 degrees. It will be true center, period. Many youtube videos on this subject.

Re: SB Heavy 10 Project, Carriage Stop and Tool Holders
You are going to be pleasently surprised how well and long lasting the aluminum one works. I have a few I made years ago from aluminum and they work just as well as a steel bought one. Although with CDCO offering new steel ones for $9.00 each why bother making them. I know its the challenge. Nice wo...
