I’m working on mounting my Holdridge 4D Radii Fixture to my recently acquired 1969 10EE, and to do so I am removing the Cross Slide and to do that I’m removing the Taper Attachment. I have wanted to remove these items anyway to inspect and clean them so I thought I would post the pictures of their current state prior to cleaning. I will update this thread as I have more pictures as well as pictures of the process of making an adapter to mount the Holdridge 4D Radii fixture.
Here are pictures of the Cross Slide and the Taper Attachment before cleaning.
Bottom of Cross Slide. I Was Pleased to see the original Flaking pattern.
Cross Slide Lead Screw Cavity.
Seems like Taper Attachments get pretty dirty from pics I have Seen.
I will update with pic’s of the Adapter Plate and mounting of the Radii Fixture to the Cross Slide and Cleaned up parts. I found it interesting that the bottom of the Cross Slide had different “Z” Oil Groove patterns.
