Hi,
I have an an ex tafe Nuttle 6 1/2" short bed lathe converted to metric- I have obtained an imperial lead screw from one of our forum members. I have also purchased a spare parts and operating manual for this machine.
I now now have the dilemma - do I convert back to imperial to enable me to cut imperial threads or keep it as metric and try and work out the gearing to cut imperial threads.
if I convert back to imperial I need to find a 25, 35, 36 and 72 tooth change gears - can any one help with these. The other option is to keep the lathe as metric and work out what gears I need to cut imperial threads - I already have a 30, 60 and 127 tooth change gear.
I am also in desperate need of finding a spindle taper sleeve (spindle adaptor) for this lathe.
Aparently an option for these lathes include a taper turning attachment, length stop and Rapid Fontana Quick change tool post - does anyone know of these items left over from a clapped out nuttle scrap machine.
If any one has any ideas or info I would be pleased to hear from you.
thanks Rod
