I did missidentify the Stinger, the longer case length threw me off. The 22 long is basically a 22 LR case with a 22 short bullet. The LR subsonic...

The round on the right is a 22WMR, which do come jacketed although that one appears to be plated. As stated before, the 22 S,L&LR rimfire ammunition...

There is some more information in this link, including a video with a stirring soundtrack but no information. It is a .380. ...

The 22's in that link are not jacketed. The 22 magnum fires a jacketed bullet and there are any number of jacketed 22 centerfire cartridges, but the...

Probably High Point Firearms. A friend stopped over with a 45 he bought, butt ugly and clunky, but they are supposed to be reliable and do have the...

Your and your family's safety is worth what for you to defend if necessary? The firearms market is currently off the wall with many dealers new...

I'm happy to hear that I am not the only one trying to understand what he is trying to accomplish. I will add, however, that if you don't know fully...

That's your pet peeve. In my opinion, that is what makes the metric system a PITA to use. Every dimension is in somethingmeters. You have to...

The so-called "metric penalty" is due to the economics of supply and demand. There is less demand for the metric sized material, hence shorter...

For $19.99, it might be a worthwhile project, but with import power feeds selling for between $200 & $300 it is hardly worth the aggravation.

A quick and dirty calculation of the Ajax engine at 130 PSI and 250 RPM yields approximately 1/3HP, which sounds reasonable compared to the...

Jim, you might check with Tiny Power. This link is to their 110 engine which is a twin derived from their 109 engine which is not shown. The 109 is a...

Reference the parts list, the collet should turn out by turning the adaptor, part number 5. It has been a while since I have seen one of these and I...

The UM56B is the underneath drive with 8 spindle speeds shiftable while running. It has a 56" bed with 34" between centers. The threaded spindle is...

They use tapered roller bearings in the spindle.

I object to needing a thick skin. For the most part when build articles do appear here, criticism is rare. Offers of other means to accomplish a task...

Many years ago, I worked closely with a motor repair shop that did many repairs similar to Sir John's. Their experience with the Eutectic system was...

Those holes are for an externally adjusted scope. Steve Earle sells blocks for these mounts as well as other products. Take a few minutes to drool...

That lathe was purchased long before WWII, probably well before WWI. If you want an antique to restore, go for it. If you are looking for a useable...

I don't have a recent Blue Book. It is a good reference, but not always representative of what actual prices are being attained, particularly in...

If you are looking for T&C grinder information, you will not get a better bargain than the CD John Stevenson's wife sells. It includes the Cincinatti...

What Dave said. The shaft is probably warped from welding and chucking in the four jaw is forcing the tailstock end to run out. The best method for...

Be aware that there are two different Craftsman 12" lathes, early and late, and that the T slot dimensions might differ.

He mentions a bore hole, but if drilling, where is he going to find a drill gage that goes to 1"? Most stop at 1/2". Regardless, using the...

Quite frankly, from the appearance of the first photo, I see no rust that would require removal. That looks like clean metal that is simply age...

That won't do you much good when the hole to be threaded is to be bored and single pointed on the lathe as the OP requires.

The simplest method is to divide 1 by the thread count and subtract from major diameter. Use the drill closest to this size to drill tapping hole. ...

I knew they had it as I had bought some to repair a hydraulic tracer cylinder a few years ago. While their catalog is excellent, sometimes you run...

McMaster Carr does have precision plated shafting. Part number 5947K14 is for 12" length. They have it available up to 48" length.

The bicycle industry was well established in the northern states and many cycle works branched out into other areas, including tools and firearms....
