I was wondering if anyone has a No 700 taper attachment. I purchased one some time ago from Ebay incomplete, and I would like to get it going now. The parts I need dimensions for are the 10-706A Draw Bar, the 10-704A Slide and the 10-705A Clamp. I'm missing a few other small parts as well, but I think I can get them figured out pretty easily. My thanks to anyone who can provide some data.
 
The No. 700's are probably relatively rare as they were only made for a few years in the 1930's. We have the instructions and parts sheet on the 700 but only have drawings on the No. 760. Whether or not someone on here has one of them, I would suggest calling Clausing to see whether they still have the drawings. What you do is first ask whether they have the parts. If they do, it's up to you whether you buy them or not. If they don't have the parts, which for this unit is more likely, THEN you can ask them whether they have the drawings. And ask them to email them to you.
 
I have a complete unit and I can get you those dimensions. Probably tomorrow sometime. If you'd like, PM me with some direct contact info.
 
I never expected anyone to turn up with one of those so haven't bothered to try to clean up the horrible PDF that is floating around. I guess that I shall have to do that.
 
Matty,

Please post the dimensions in the thread instead of in a PM. It doesn't happen very often but the full nomenclature is in the thread title, so it is searchable. In case someone else later comes around needing the same info.

Dimensioned sketches of 10-704A, 10-705A & 10-706A are now in DOWNLOADS

Has anyone tried using an Atlas 700 Taper Attachment on a Logan 200 lathe?
 
You would probably need to make a new clamp for the bed, I believe the Logan has v ways, the Atlas is flat. You would probably need adapters to attach both the body to the carriage and the arm to the cross slide.

If he is asking specifically about a "Taper Attachment" made for an Atlas 700 that has been adapted to fit a Logan lathe as I believe he is then, Would the ways matter considering the taper attachment does not mount to them (at least i dont believe they do which is why im asking!) Im also assuming that Noahs logan lathe has a carriage made for that lathe. Anyway could you help clear this up for me please? Thanks
