The lathe is mounted on a 65 by 33 table mounted on a 15″x50″ ground plate. The plate is 1/2″ thick (started at 5/8″ but after grinding was slightly smaller) steel plate. It was precision Blanchard ground to achieve a flatness of. 0025 and parallelism of better then. Then custom machined to match the hole pattern for the lathe.

The first is the cover on the headstock touches somewhere and rubs which is annoying. You will see in some of the pictures to the left and below the Craftsman label there is a rubber spacer that stops the rubbing. The other problem is that the crossfeed sometimes binds up so that the crossfeed wheel is hard to turn. It hasn’t happened recently, but this is not uncommon in Atlas lathes. What happens is the autofeed gears are engaging when not wanted so the wheel can be hard to move. A fix is to engage the automatic feed for the cross slide so the drive line turns it. It will move easily under drive power, and the wheel turns again when autofeed is disengaged. You may not see it happen again for a year. This has not happened recently but it may happen to you. Here is a solution to this – see shdesigns. Org/Craftsman-12×36/crossmod. With shtml at the end of the link I just engage the autofeed for the crossfeed to get it moving again (never fight or force the handwheel if it is difficult). You can pick this lathe up in Sunnyvale California or I can deliver it at no charge to within 50 miles of San Jose CA. I will deliver it to your driveway but I can’t carry it around. You get the table and the ground metal plate unless you don’t want them. More than 50 miles for me to deliver is a dollar a mile with a limit of 200 miles unless you arrange with me ahead of time. 50 miles and less is free.
