This is a Craftsman
Atlas 12" lathe that I sold. The bed is 4ft long, and will
spin an 8" part over the carriage. Everything runs well
on it. There's no rust, and ways are in good shape. Wired for
110VAC, bi-directional motor with control. It has three chucks;
one self-centering inside chuck, one outside, and one independent
four-jaw chuck. The stepped pulley in the headstock was replaced
with a solid aluminum version (not pot metal) direct from Sears.
The lathe has the QC box for threading (no messing with juggling
gears.) In addition, it has a steady rest with little wear on
the pads, and a backgear.
Tooling included is:
2 parting tools
3 HSS bit holders (left, center, right)
Jacobs drill chuck for tailstock
Knurling tool
Threading tool
Boring bar holder with two bars
1 live and 1 dead center for tail stock
Over all, the unit is in very good shape for it's age and would
be perfect for a home shop. There is a fair bit of wear on the
lead screw, so it's not really appropriate for super precise
threading over an appreciable length. The ways and such are in
top shape.
