Hi All,
First post here. I'm looking at purchasing my first lathe (I do have access to an old Clausing 100 mk3a in the farm shop that has some issues with the clutch and would need some attention, but I'm mostly interested at this point in the G0602 or it's buddies in that size range. My question is this:
Several older posts list the spindle bore diameter of the G0602 as 1" nominal and several folks have measured it a few hundredths over. The current grizzly listing for this lathe lists the spindle bore as 25mm. Does anyone know if they've changed the part and it's a legit 25mm and a 1.0" round bar would not fit through, or if it's the same spindle as always and they've changed the nomenclature for some reason. Thanks in advance!
