Hi everyone I have a tailstock that I am fairly sure is for some sort of Deckel dividing head. What I can't figure out is the center height. When I measure carefully with a MT2 arbor on a surface plate (compared to a pile of gauge blocks) I calculate 90.47mm, even if I am off by a bit a new dead center in the mint looking bore is visibly much higher than an 90mm gauge block. The base of the tailstock is in good shape (and flat stoned)
This seems really strange, are the tailstocks really fit to each index head separately? I would expect these to by more like Schaublin lathe tailstocks that are interchangeable with the same 102 center distance all the time.
thanks
Luke
