Hi My name is Wayne I don't think I've posted on here before. I recently bought a craftsman 12" lathe and haven't did much with it yet,but when mounted a...
do you have the old lantern or rocker style toolpost? same tool ,just different names. i dont have a 12" lathe but a "O" toolholder sounds a bit small. its not...
One thing that you should be aware of is that the rocker-style post is used with different tools for left-hand turning and right-hand tools, depending on...
I was recently given (yes, for free) what I have tentatively identified as an AA 109 lathe, thanks to the photos here. It is a bit rusty and is missing the...
Mike I have the old style tool holder(lantern).I measured the compound casting from the top of the main casting where the screw goes to the top of the t slot...
Yeah, that does sound like either the wrong size compound. It depends on the model, but in the manual for my 12x36, which covers model #'s 101.28980and ...
... David, Try http://www.homeshopsupply.com/parts.html or Ebay for the parts you need. When looking in ebay, search "109", "craftsman", and even "atlas"....
... This is the "late model" 12", there's an earlier design that is much closer to the 10" lathe's parts. But, on either one, the t-slot where the toolpost...
Hey there everybody, I'm having two major difficulties with my 12" Atlas Craftsman Commercial and one minor. Or maybe they are all related? The slide gear gets...
Yea something is wrong. My lathe is model 101.07403. If I bought that PhaseII tool post would I have same trouble? Wayne ... depends on ... 101.28980and ... ...
Hi...I have the 101.07403 12" lathe also and I bought Phase II style tool post but chinese brand (wedge type - I like better than piston type). I made my own...
I believe that the Phase II post should work fine. In particular, it has a much wider range of height adjustments than the lantern post. Michael ... [Non-text...
... Does the two-step gear (16/32 tooth) below the spindle have an aluminum plate between the two gears? The models of the lathe that have the gear that...
... I don't think so. If the lantern toolpost fits correctly on your machine and you can easily get your cutters to point into the work, then the Phase-II...
-Again I want to thank all of you for your replies. I think i may have figured my problem out.I was trying to use a Williams R-0 tool holder in my rocker tool...
... The Armstrong tool holders were set up for use with hand-ground HSS bits. When the part of the holder that goes in the toolpost was roughly level, the top...
No there is not an aluminum disc there. In the mean time I've disassembled the gearing and the removed the lead screw assembly. Close inspection has the quick...
The pipe cleaner was there to lead the oil from the oil hole down to the gears. Without it, the oil just squirts in a haphazard direction and won't get to...
Hello there, I have an Atlas 7B shaper with stand for sale that's located in St. Louis MO. I'm asking $500 for this shaper, it works well and has a vise. You...

... Usually the back is open, so the tail of the bit can hang out without interfering with anything. But, yes, you don't want a lot of the bit sticking out...
I live in Northern Vt, in the Burlington area. Saw this ad in our local newspaper tonight. I don't need another lathe, but perhaps one of you folks are in the...
While reading that page I remembered that i replaced the belts on the lathe about 2 weeks before we moved a couple of years ago. I don't think I used the...
