  3. Replacement Change Gears for Atlas / Craftsman Metal Lathes

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/63430-replacement-change-gears-for...

    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.

  4. Old Atlas lathe (how much to offer) - The Home Shop Machinist ...

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/52076-old-atlas-lathe-how-much-to-offer

    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.

  5. Are Atlas lathes any good? What are they worth...

    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.

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/39995-leblond-lathe-price-vs-value

    You can get a Pacemaker in useable condition that will likely out-perform the LeBlond in accuracy, metal removal per hour and even ergonomics for about $1200 - $1500. When you consider the time and cost to rebuild that machine ... well unless it is a labor of love, one could do much better "economically" speaking. I do like LeBlond lathes, though.

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/55939-jet-124-metal-lathe

    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 ...

  8. Hamilton metal lathe... - The Home Shop Machinist & Machinist's...

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/35897-hamilton-metal-lathe

    A personal opinion is that I like it because it's different, although to me it seems too high priced and too small to be generally useful, unless all you will be using it for is turning down small rod. A metal lathe needs to be capable of turning threads. Ken

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/79373-tony-lathes-co-uk

    I just emailed Tony a couple of days ago, as a local seller popped up on Craigslist with a nice example of an apparently very rare Gilman/Hannifin combination machine- according to the text, only one Gilman is known to exist, and apparently the one I showed him was only the second Hannifin.

  10. Replacement Change Gears for Atlas / Craftsman Metal Lathes

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/63430-replacement-change-gears-for...

    My ZAMAC change gears are 70 years old and doing fine. Clearly they do not get used every day. Be advised that there are two different styles of change gears for Atlas/Craftsman 10" and 12" lathes. The difference is the hub thickness. If you buy gears from different generations of lathe, you'll have to deal with this.

  11. Small Summit lathe - The Home Shop Machinist & Machinist's...

    bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/forum/general/32886-small-summit-lathe

    The lathe turned out to be an 11 x 32 on the Summit tag, serial number 418. Has an Acklands tag below the Summit tag with similar information. On the end of the lathe is a metal sticker that says, "Made in China", although I have to say it does not look like the current Chinese machines on the market. The castings are nice and smooth and straight.
