Same spindle design is on the Wade model 73 which also uses 5C collets.

If it's a 1-1/4-20 thread, I'm going to pass. Won't fit my Wade, that why I asked if it was an A2 spindle nose.

I've used machines in that classroom. Most were well kept. The Jig Bore got very little use. Rigging would be out a ground level rollup door.

I have a turret from a Wade #73 if you're interested.
Located in N.central NJ. Shipping possible, maybe through Fastenal?

What spindle nose? Modified A?
Intersted in faceplates, etc.

For that to be an incentive, the shop would have to have better capabilities than the instructor already has at work or in his own shop.

Maybe you are trying to teach too much. What do your members need? All of them can't possibly be accounts in their day job.

VoTech schools charge a (sometimes hefty) fee for their classes, that's how they get qualified and motivated instructors. Maybe you've got something wrong in your business model.

Wow, rough looking!

No, not similar at all. The Wade 94/98 has a wider bed to match its larger swing.

Thanks a ton Hendeyman. I will get a better picture when I can, the one posted wasn't taken by me.

Does anyone have any information on the machine pictured?
Model number, weight, capabilities, etc.?
I'm wondering if it's versatile enough to save or just a boat anchor?

A materials inventory and cut-list system to maximize the number of parts that could be made from drops or remnants would probably have a large payback.

No, it was made to be an air compressor for a service station.

Can't comment on the origin of the head style, but we sold tens of thousands to the aerospace industry with the heads cross drilled for safety wires.

Mine was flat belt driven, both the pump and the tensioner have their original pulleys.
LP intake pipe does connect to the to of the crankcase in the rear.
Is your pump an H3A or some other model?

My compressor is assembled and was working until I removed what was an electromagnetic check valve to determine why it failed. It has a Wagner motor, which I believe to be original, 3/4hp, 1725rpm,...

I have a similar, if not the same USACO compressor pump. Mine does not have the little vent shown in image #1, post #7. Mine isn't in use, but runs and has yet to see any disassembly or TLC.

How does the owner expect that anyone would know that the hand tapper line continued? i don't recall anything in the auction listing stating, "Intellectual property and hand tapper line not included."

As previously posted, Bauer is gone, auctioned off. Rail-Mike's Tool-A-Rama has been gone for about 10 years.
