Nah. Just cut you a few slices out of a not fully-perished disk brake pad, and yer good to go with drop-in replacements!

As to the CR hold-downs?

Yes, ideally you'd want longer curved segments,...

Electric pump for me. Even if that's just a tiny motor with an eccentric moving the plunger on what HAD BEEN a mechanical or manual pump.

Pushbutton pre-flight "primer". Parallel as-it-goes...

I think you have it covered.

You won't really know about flow rates nor the balance of distribution, various points, until you have the carriage back on, loaded with its superstructure, and put it...

I just said: "They lost the damned WAR, didn't they?"

- 1968 FIAT 124 DOHC .. don't even ASK!

- 1972 and (slow learner!) 1986 BMW six.. with the f**ked up heads that crack.

- 1981 Subaru -...

LOL! Only if you always have parts left over!

Minimal tear-down, already more 10EE parts than I started with.. began to wonder if one of mine was male, the other female.. then recalled I had...

I love it when someone has a similar idea to what I want to do. Have not yet done. ... and does it FIRST!

- The manifold, distribution lines, any metering orifices need to move with the carriage...

It wasn't common, but handy enough there are several lathes with "similar' features, basic crude strap to geared rack (Cazeneuve).

Good to see this one still functional!

I don't think it actually makes as much difference as ceasing to chronically rob it might.

I vote for using the same juice as surfacing and threading gearbox. WHATEVER that is.

Same wish-list, different flavour for my two 10EE. One has a TA, the other not, but even so, there is plenty of room on the back, under the TA, for a reservoir and pump, one-shot, periodic shot,...

Much the same here, as BOTH the HBX-360-BC HS and TS are 5 MT.

Annnnd yah don't "scrape and forget". Henri Rene Bruet made the TS center position adustable for wear or intentional offset....

Better yet. Collet system as don't need a drawtube. Case in point, one-each "plate mount" ER-40, one each key-cranker 5C, sets of both hex and square "collet block". No spindle-mount backplate on any...

Don't git all uppity and 'elitist" over that part.

"It's PM, dammit."

You shall have to take a number and wait yer turn to fergit s**t.. just like the rest of us.

I once asked Brian to fab me a longer bar than his usual. He declined.

Figured he knew more than I did as to what was practical, so I went with what he had shipped me, standard.

- Old Bucks were good. New LARGE Bucks might still be. Smaller ones, they might be making? More likely simply "branding" imports.

- 6 jaw are for tubes and rings where fewer jaws too easily...

I'll be damned! (again. still-yet..) D'you know what? Mere 'suspicion" again, but what if..... MMT had a special order where a customer wanted 5 MT. not XX jarno, machined-off the D1 short taper...

I have a suspicion.. that's all it is, so far.. but take a stylus to those six grey areas on the inner circle. You might have thought they were fasteners for an add-on nose. I think they are...

It "could be" a #13 Jarno.

Measurement is only complicated because Monarch used a pair of truncated cone Jarno-section "rings".

- The one at the mouth is a 2/3'rds or so back of the "full"...

Not on a Monarch, it does not. "Integral as it can possible be" a(ny) Monarch spindle is. Monolithic, even. Eat yer faulted heart out, Rock of Gibralter.

Jarno 18, truncated, is more in line with Monarch spindle practice.

I'd expect an OEM Monarch P/N existed for two adapters, probably down to an MT4 and another to MT3.

Both ends of my HBX-360 - roughly a 14" "trade", shade under 16" clear over edge of the ways, are 5 MT. But it isn't common TS & HS the same, amongst lathes.

A pragmatic way to check is to buy a...

LOL! Mind's me of a night at the OLD "Harlows" back in the day (early 1980's..)- trying to eat ALL of my fifth steak before daylight caused me to have to PAY for more than just the ONE . Did so!...

LOL! I suspect that got more envy than sympathy,, given you've got a LOT more space and helpful gear than the average bear to be able to snatch a large part with equipment already-there, not have to...

Well. "not at all new".

Reality is the BIGGEST EVER of machine tool builder's empires were actually small BEANS.. compared to the economic might and resources under command of.... their...

The only cautionary advice about the "have other lathe" I can offer is to PROTECT that as if survival-food-stash sacred!

:)

"At the moment" and for more than 3 year - BOTH 10EE are offline......

It will.

But the softer Cast Iron, UNDERSIDE of the carriage, as mates to those ways, will have four or more times as much wear as the hardened ways.

The less take-apart, the more care in...
