HI browny289; Thks, Glad to hear you like tools4cheap too. It's good to get reviews from satisfied customers. I just ordered the 7/8" set as I already had the 7/8" arbor. Another reason why this forum is such a great source of info. I have overcome any reservations I had about asking newbie...

Thks steamer; Looks like I will get the set from Jeff on ebay and may need to add a couple of extras from MSC. I need to fill about 12" on the length of the arbor. Actually I hadn't thought about the cost of them yet. I was thinking that F&F would be quicker. I learned a long time ago to not...

Thks to both of you!! :big: I hadn't thought of using bushings. There is a farm & fleet store in town. If they don't have something, as Steamer suggested I can order them online. Steamer: I have all of the parts for the arbor including the support arm and the end casting with bushings. I will...

Thks for the welcome posts. Tin, your right, the Atlas was not intended to be a lathe but I'm asking it to do double duty since the Dunlap isn't the easiest to use yet. The 3" 4-jaw chuck was a gift from a friend and has one of the jaw screw holes stripped for much of the bottom of the hole. I...

Hi All; A quick post to tell you a little about myself. I found you after doing a search online. I retired back in 08/11 from a 16 yr truck driving career. It was the 4th career after USAF, tire salesman at the now defunct Montgomery Wards, and pc tech at an engineering co. My interest in metal...
