Got a 1974 12x36 lathe a few weeks ago, my first lathe, and have an Atlas 7x7 xy axis table I picked up a few years ago for use on my dp. I've read where this can be attached to the cross slide, anyone know where I can see a picture of one mounted on the lathe? thanks, Brian

Yes, just take off the compound slide and the xy table top fits were the compound was. loosen up the two set screws on tthe compound that allows the compound to rotate.

This sounds REALLY GREAT! Wonder if I can find something like these before I die. (not that I plan to die soon, of course)
