... to improve stiffness. More likely it's so that they only have to make one to fit all bed lengths. Yours is a 36, but it also fits the 24. An extended one...
I am in need of the 4 groove pulley as found on the countershaft for a 618. Please reply off list if you have one for sale. Thank you. -- Mike N "As we...
Hi, I am considering selling my Vintage Craftsman Atlas lathe and parts/tools. I can't seem to find a serial number on it. The only number is 10D-247 and...
You should take a week or two and watch ebay atlas lathe and lathe part sales. That will give you a very good idea of the going rates in addition to what...
That's an old 12" lathe (1936/37, I'd guess), Babbitt bearings, and without a lot of tooling. And rust. You're looking at $500 or a little less, depending on...
You are not going to like this.................. From your pictures, I would have to suggest that it would be priced at the bottom end of the range..... ...

... I have to disagree.. doesn't appear to be in that bad of shape. That surface rust will come right off with a wire wheel. The tooling isn't really that...
Well, your "before" is a LOT better than the pics show. His is RUSTY, and no mistake about it. Must have a "rust discount, no matter HOW easily it would...
The serial number should be stamped on the right hand end of the bedways on the top and there should be a tag on the back center of the bed under the ways with...
... I admire your jingoism, but the Atlas/Craftsman 12" was manufactured to a marketing price point - just as are the low-end Chicom lathes. It's a 12" lathe...
... And if you are like me you never have the cash when they come available and cannot find one when you have the cash. ;-) -- Mike N Salad is what food eats...
I have this parts craftsman 3950 It is what it is; I would like to sell the useful parts off this lathe. Tail stock is good. what gears on it are ok as far as...
Okay.. Maybe I should have clearified my statement. As a tool, yes you are right..If you really got to have a Lathe then running to harbor freight would...
Does anyone know what size block to mount the countershaft on to get the proper height so the belt has clearence in all pulley combinations? my set up is...
One thing that will determine pricing is where it is located. I was in Ohio and machine tools of all kinds,big and small were plentiful and cheap. A bridgeport...
Made some measurements and realized.. Answer, NO BLOCK.. The block/Spacer is only if the motor is between the mainstock and the countershaft.. both are exactly...
You and me, both, Mike! I've been looking for about 30 years, never found one when I could afford it, and whenever I can't, they're everywhere! Bill in OKC...
... I also love the old tools. I am using a 70 year old Craftsman wood lathe and 50 year old Craftsman band saw. Also a Walker - Turner jointer from the 40's....
Luck has a great deal to do with it :) I told everybody I know to keep their eyes open for metal lathes. I got to go look at some really strange stuff but I...
I'm making a few dozen little knobs out of 1/2" brass. My setup: Atlas 10" with a turret toolpost and a turret tailstock. It's production time! I've made a...
... Brass is notoriously grabby. Placing the tool below centerline has the effect that deflection pushes the tool away from the work. If it is ABOVE center,...
just in case any one is interested, this is on a wood working site (Wood Net) I go to a lot. No connection to seller, just passing along. Thanks, Tony ...
