    WTB Sellers or Farrell 1G drill grinder, parts, chuck assemblies.

    Here is a photo of the Sellers 1G for comparison with your Farrell. I have no chuck assembly for your reference. From the photos of the Farrell grinders I have seen, the chuck assemblies are interchangeable when comparing the "series" 1 models from both manufacturers (1G, 1A, etc.). Thanks a...

    Lathe alignment... unclear to this chipster

    Howdy once more, Yikes, a good bit of input to try. Thanks so much for offering up ideas and advice. I'll have a bit of time tomorrow to fiddle with it some more. One suggestion from Jim that I did try re: spindle bearings. When checking the play as outlined in some other postings, leaning on a...

    Lathe alignment... unclear to this chipster

    Again, thanks for the input For the present time, scraping the headstock is not in the cards as the gearbox needs to be done in the next week or two. I actually do have a copy of Conolley's book on order. I suppose for the job at hand the path to follow is to make adjustments, regardless of...

    Lathe alignment... unclear to this chipster

    Greetings again, It's been a stretch since I've had a chance to get back to the computer.

    Lathe alignment... unclear to this chipster

    Greetings all, In setting up my 9" A model on a new bench this week, I have come upon a lathe alignment problem I am hoping to get some help with. After leveling the lathe, I set an 8" ground rod in a collet to align the headstock with the ways. With test indicators on the carriage I...

    Converting mill spindle from B&S #9 to R8?

    Andy, For as far up the bore as I was able to measure accurately with telescoping gages, the taper was even...no "steps" or bell shaped areas, etc. in the first three inches. I was expecting worse after I got the home-brewed adapter out. I ordered an end mill holder to use as "standard" for...

    Converting mill spindle from B&S #9 to R8?

    Thanks! and "Gargoyle"?... Thanks for the input/info. After looking at the links and leads, and digging a bit more for B&S tooling rather than strictly seeking conversion options, I think I'll bag the conversion pathway. Though modifying the Cochran-Bly's spindle to R8 isn't too much of an...

    Converting mill spindle from B&S #9 to R8?

    Greetings all, I am interested in exploring the conversion of the B&S #9 taper in my Cochran-Bly #14 mill spindle to R8.... the availability and variety of R8 tooling has its appeal. In the past I remember running across some info on the web relating to this switch but have come up empty handed...
