My recently acquired,cleaned and now running Central Machinery 12 x 36 geared head lathe has a D series cam lock chuck, something new to me. The lathe only has a three jaw chuck and I'd like to pick up both a four jaw and faceplate. The chuck mount has four equally spaced pins the cam locks hook to. Iam not sure of the diameter of the pin circle but the mounting plate is approx 4.625" in diameter. The chuck itself is 6". I know that the chuck and mount are "D" series but can't find any more information than that in the specs. Also, I know the four jaw mounts this way but I am not sure that is the case for the faceplate.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction to figure out what to order. I'd check the archives here but I am locked out if the search function until I put up a certain number of posts.
I think I am also going to be looking for a AXA wedge type tool post.
Thanks,
Steve
