Conica Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Restored an old lathe in work recently, couple of months back but the current 9" 3 jaw just has knacked Jaws, Can't hold jobs anywhere near true. Just wondering if anyone knew where i could get my hands on a 3/4 jaw 9/10" chuck for relatively cheap, Make/Model & Bore not really important as anything i get will most likely need a backplate making up anyway. Cheers for any info

porter_jamie Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 J and l, or cromwell tools, or ebay
wazrs257 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 You could do worse than trying your local 'tat' yard if you're looking for second hand. My boss had a big tidy out at work recentley and wanted to get rid of half a dozen or so chucks and rotary tables etc. Because of the state of our manufacturing industry, he couldn't find anybody that wanted them, so he ended up weighing them in.
Conica Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 Cheers for the leads guys, And Waz, Tell you boss he's a proper gent
TriGGer Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 ...and tell him I'd have had a couple of rotary tables ....
Mark/Foggy Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 And me, need the lot at the moment, just commisioned a mill myself. Oh and BTW, pass this place nearly every day, prices are keen, quality not bad. Warco
paul8899 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Posted February 9, 2012 I might have a 12 inch rotary table and some other bits in my shed , I'll post a pic up later

Mark/Foggy Posted February 9, 2012 Report Posted February 9, 2012 Where's all the emoticons? I'm keen, will pay postage.
paul8899 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Posted February 9, 2012 Here's the picture of the rotary table and some other bits my dads collected over the years The table is in very good condition , it has a vernier scale on the handle , £250 . It might be a bit too heavy to post though , it's around 30kg A compound machine vice , didn't measure it because it's a bit cold outside but I think it's got 4 inch jaws £130 There's also a boring head attachment for a deckel FP2 with really light use , a shaping head for a series one ( I think ) bridgeport mill and a brand new genuine bridgeport x travel lead screw for a series one.
Mark/Foggy Posted February 11, 2012 Report Posted February 11, 2012 That Paul is a beautiful piece for kit, though I supect that I got over excited then for a minute. It's gonna be too big for the route that I'm going down. If I wanted to spin a whole bike around on a turret mill, it would be perfect. May be in touch though. The mill I've just commisioned is pictured over in projects, fit that table and it'd fall over. Plan is to get one of these installed at P1 towers, plus a full set of tools to match. http://www.warco.co.uk/milling-machines/33-wm-18-variable-speed-milling-machine.html Takes a bike cylinder head easily, should come in at under 3k for the complete package. Wish me luck.

They are a bit out of the way.
