Atlas model 954, A rare 9"

In part 25, I finish wiring the motor, then start messing with the change gears, and start to figure out the threading chart:

In Part 26, I play around some more with the change gears, then take inventory of the other "stuff" that came with the lathe:

I was just watching some of this and noticed the repair attempt on the Zamack,, solder of course will never stick and JB weld will fail also but you can TIG it with Aladdins 3 in 1 welding rod I have used it with a torch but with a TIG has better control of your heat. I have fixed in the past alot of zamack parts with this stuff it takes some practice but it is not impossible.. Ray

Thanks Ray. I had heard it can be Tig welded, but I do not have a Tig setup……….yet :)).

And paying to have it done is not in the cards. I am looking forward to making a new bracket of my own design.

But thanks for the heads up about the specially rods.

Was working on making a small part for my Oliver tractor, and the compound drive seized up on me. Turns out I never got around to taking it apart, cleaning it, and re-greasing it properly!
