1. Change gears for the lathes in question all have 14.5 degree pressure angle. You don't have to worry about that. 2. The Atlas / Craftsman 10" and 12" lathes all use 16 DP gears. 3. All of the 16 DP change gears from Union, Boston or Browning have a 3/4" bore with two keyways. This is the configuration that fits your Atlas / Craftsman lathes. 4.
OK, usable, but lightweight and flexible, with many parts made of what people call "pot metal". None of those pot metal parts are available new, and they are rather breakable in some cases. Pricing depends on location. That's an Alaska type price, although might be about 20% low for Alaska.
According to the prevailing advice on all of the machining forums, I paid way too much ($750) for my Atlas QC42 with quite a bit of tooling. I used it for a year or so and resold it without the extras for that same $750 within hours of listing it on Craigslist . Based on the emails and phone calls, I could have priced it a good bit higher.

as one poster noted, new imports aren't all that expensive, and due to the scarcity of this one, might be easier and cheaper in the long run if parts ever broke. enco and grizzly have 12x36-12x40 lathes for $3000-$3500. i know enco does % off and free shipping on occasion, though most of the time it excludes machinery, but i thought i got a ...
This could be a good machine at a nice price, but it all depends on condition. The OP did not mention if he has any experience with lathes, and specifically gear head lathes. As you say, he'll need to run the lathe at every speed and listen for noises or problems. He should test every single threading and feed setting. That takes a while!

So in my spare time, I'm shopping around for an upgrade for my old babbitt bearing Craftsman 12x36 lathe. I had intended to find another newer craftsman/atlas unit just so I could hold onto my tooling and accessories, but I've stumbled across one or two Clausing 100's and one Clausing 4800.
