So I got a great bargain on a tool I don't need, is incomplete and doesn't fit my machine. Am I lucky or what? The first objection is ridiculous. The second I was able to solve by finding the spline sleeve in the picture that fits the driven shaft and preparing the OD will be no problem. Unfortunately, the minimum order was high enough that I now have two extra that I can share for $20 delivered. Having a Southbend rather than Bridgeport has caused problems for the 35 years since it became the only vertical mill in my shop. And now again - it's spindle is 3.250 instead of 3.375. Of coarse I'll shim it, but wouldn't it be fun if someone out there had the mount that fits.
Even though I don't post much, I am really glad to be part of this forum. Regards
