Thanks Michael I will keep it in mind.

I have an account with McMaster Carr that will send to my door here in Newmarket, Ontario (just north of Toronto). I am one of the lucky few that had my account set up before they changed their rule

Hi There,

More information attached. A catalog cut of the SB 90 degree attachment (accessory A). Thanks again in advance for all the assistance. A great weekend to all! Greg

You guys have to have someplace up there you can buy such things from, but you could also make your own if you can do internal threading. That is a skill I don't have yet, myself, but I'm supposed to

It has a stoutish 3phase 220/440vac motor with no data plate now. None of the electrics are there otherwise. No idea what the motor is really rated for, just going on what Bill H said, IF I remember

Yes, you're right V thread. I'm in Canada though, McMaster Carr won't sell outside USA. They would have to paperwork everything to prove to the gummnt they are not selling nuclear reactors in kit

Hi There, I think Tony's spindle is 13-23/32" (if I read that right). That is only a 1/32" shorter than yours. The length is the least critical dimension. The collet draw bar can easily span

Bill, I was also pleasantly surprised to see the Gosiger Tool Co is still operational - listed on my Serial Card as the original agent. I spent a bit of time on their website tonight. Cheers, Tony

Bill, my machine is definitely a single tumbler machine. I have measured nearly 0.0015" wear on the ways near the headstock but I can live with that. There are no dents or dings anywhere on the ways.

I've attached a copy of my serial number card, as well, so we can compare them, I note that Tony's has the same 102-5C for the DIC, as well, though his spindle is slightly different, at 13=28/32 or

Hi There, After seeing Tony's Build card, I can see that the numbers (like 100, 102, etc.) I believe, do refer to the unit codes of the sub-assemblies. I see that the 13-3/4" is the spindle

Bill, looking at your numbers made me hunt up my Serial Card again - copy attached. I had always thought of mine as being a 'Pearl Harbour' period lathe, but now, on second look, I interpret the

Hi There, I assume your catalog number is 8187RN. The first "8" designate a "Toolroom" lathe. The "187" designates a Heavy Ten. The "R" is for a 4-1/2ft. bed. The "N" I'm not familiar with off

Mind interpreting mine for me? Mine is an 8187-RN 10L x 4 1/2 102 headstock 102 DIC 102-5C 100 for most everything else. 13-3/4" spindle. SP. Hole 1-3 It was sent to the Ruritan, NJ Arsenal 10/14/41,

Hi There,

Hi, FINALLY getting around to doing this several years after getting a copy of my lathe's manufacturing card. https://www.flickr.com/photos/allartburns/51594312424 If I understand things, "RKL"

Guess I'm going to have to check mine more carefully, too. Bill in OKC William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.) A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a

Feel free to point them at me. I'd prefer to get the right one for my Atlas. I'd be willing to trade, even. Bill in OKC William R. Meyers, MSgt, USAF(Ret.) A human being should be able to change a
