HAVE YOU EVER WISHED YOUR LATHE HAD A POWER TAILSTOCK FEED DURING LONG CENTER-DRILLING & REAMING OPERATIONS?

YOU'VE GOT IT! -- Here's how:

Tool uses a shaft collar with an I.D. the same size as your tailstock spindle& a plate with a fork-like cut out.

The notched fork is mounted in place of a tool holder on your compound slide.

Engage the fork on the shaft collar, and loosen the tailstock clamp so it will just slide. Now your power longitudinal feed will move your tailstock. Simply crank back cross slide to disengage.

As a manufacturer of cnc shape cutting machines and flame cutting machines, we try wherever possible to use thermal cutting processes in place of traditional machine work and mechanical cutting. However, as this is not always possible, we have over time developed a number of methods for performing metal fabrication and machine work in the shortest possible time. These pages are intended to share these tips with metal fabrication shops, street rod chassis builders, welding businesses and others for whatever they are worth.
