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. |
