No biggee, don't stress it; bearings are weeks away. So when you get to it.

Looking good man. I think maybe you forgot about that 3/8" GITS oiler. I did too until the other day and no bigee in any case. I have just -nuts- quotes back on bearings from China, like an ABEC 7 7304DB - angular contact matched pairs, back-to-back = $US4.00. I'm like WHAT ! ? 55 year...

'K, thx. I might have a few of them made but price is the deal.

I'm playing the lazy card: when you get back is there any chance you could post the CAD drawing of the cross slide puller. I'm vetting a machine shop in China and I'd like to send the guy a real drawing. Also I found a bearing manufacturer who does ABEC 7 bearings so cheaply I wont' believe it...

Well yeah, it could but I've heard of only one person crazy enough to actually put, say, a LeBlond in a basement. And then there is the guy who actually dug it out of there, pretty much unaided if I heard the tale correctly.

That weight is wrong, it actually weighs 2,700 lbs. I think Tony might have fixed that error on his site lately, he has been advised in any case

5/16" NC, as shown

3/8" I think, I'll confirm later today

Thx for all that, here's your drawing tidied up somewhat. How'd you do the 0.6875" radius at the end, looks to me like a rotary table job?

Thx, an old version of Photoshop, 7.01 on my daily driver HP Z400, XP machine : -)

Brent: These should be what you need. Thx

Mine is exactly like the pix, I can pull dimensions and post this evening. Thx.

I'm completely off-thread here and wonder if you worked up a drawing for the "cross slide puller" that the taper attachment on a D1-3 11 x 20 Utilathe uses. As seen in the pic, you made the actual part for your 10" machine and I think you mentioned planning to do drawings for the 11" and 12"...

All are in good shape and ready for use. All are 'Armstrong - Made in USA' although only the two largest ones say so. The model numbers are of the Armstrong series, being numbers 201 thru 601 A listing with pix is seen on Kijiji here...

First: I can't see how to edit the title. The price is $Cdn450.00, not $550.00 =============================== This has seen only light use on the compound slide rest of a Delta wood lathe I rebuilt that's seen on the Kjiji link below. I bought it new and am its only user. This is a 40...
