Carriage Stop

[minsk]

Does anyone know of any plans...or does anyone make a carriage stop they sell for an atlas 6" lathe. this is the lathe with the flat ways.

Many years ago, I made one. Simple but effective.

You can certainly make one from some scrap. This is a combo stop plus travel indicator that we put together. I can show more details if interested. This is on my Atlas 618

There is a detailed write-up of the construction.

Nice design. I like the combination, positive stop and indicator. I may have to borrow that concept.

I made one for my Grizzly 4002 before I had my mill. All you really need is hack saw, file. drill and tap. It really isn't a hard thing to make and you have fun at the same time. GO FOR IT !!!
