Gulledge Dividing Head Question

[junkaddict]

You guys definitely pointed my research in the right direction. I'm still cleaning up the mill I bought, and a second smaller lathe. Usually work slows...

Thank you all for the info....

When I told my wife I was going to spend 7 grand on a lathe, she **** out a kitten. Not something I need, just a want, had to pass....

I've been looking for a dividing head, and ran across & picked up this one at an estate sale. One plate, two sided, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21,...

I was drooling over this thing when these people had their estate sale a couple weeks ago. They were asking 9 grand then. Now it is 7500. Worth it? The...

The more I look around my garage, the more I realize I've made much worse. Maybe I'm a little quick to judge....

[junkaddict]

Strays are my favorite. A little love, a few beers, some lipstick, a nice dress, and let the magic happen....

[junkaddict]

If I should find myself a Heavy 10 in decent shape for a decent price at any point in the future, I will be bringing it home to replace my current Taiwanese...

It moves with the screw, I see. I though it would be free just for cutting tapers for some reason. Again, I'm not familiar with these, but I'm sure I...

[junkaddict]

I am not that familiar with these, but from what I've seen of taper attachments for sale, the cross slide casting piece with the long slot takes place...

[junkaddict]

I might actually be able to make room for this. South Bend Model A. Had to take it apart to move it, as there was no one there who could help me. Last...

[junkaddict]

Nice. Bring that thing back to its former glory....

[junkaddict]

I did change my own tires when I had access to a tire machine, but I don't anymore. I did pay someone to move a machine for me, so I guess that is my...
