Hi eveyone,
just got a 18 piece 5/8 in accessory set for a 6 holed revolving turret.
No parts list, no instruction, not even product id.
I know what the 2 chucks are, and the live center, makes 3.
There are 2 identical holders with a male 5/8" to fit in turret and tha other end is exactly the female diameter for all the what looks like tap collets. These two holders slide on a metal shaft inside the holder. There is one moe holder that has a threaded top with a hole in the center.
Any help id in
?

If you are talking about a tailstock turret I think you and your work really dictate what you use and what order you use it in. There is no set rule, you and your work determine that.

Yes, i realize that, but am not sure what the function of certain pieces in the set are used for.

I guess I do not understand. I thought when you bought a tailstock turret you simply got an empty turret that you had to load with whatever selection of tooling you chose.

Are you saying that you bought a tailstock turret that came with tooling? If yes, what tooling came with the turret?

Is this the set you are talking about?

If so, it looks like it comes with 2 drill chucks, a live center, a "reaming chuck" (not sure what that is, maybe it's a floating reamer holder... but at that price I wouldn't think so), a die holder, a tap holder, and a sundry of accessories for the tap/die holders.

Also (according to the picture) it seems to come with two identical chuck keys :shrugs:

yes, that is it. i will post pictures of that floating holder and some die holder and something in which i do not know , but the top with the hole in center is threaded on. And two identical chucks
mainly i cant identify the "reaming chuck", and not sure what the threaded holder or the two sliding or floating holders
The array of tap holders all fit into the end of the two floating holders perfectly. Nothing seems to fit in the threaded opening, with the cap off, maybe 5/16 centered hole on top of cap.here are the photos:

Please, id anyone can look at my pror post a few hours ago, wgere i posted 5 photos, showing the mystery pieces.
They gave two identical sliding holders, the die holders and the tap holders both fit into the two sliding holders.
then there is a threaded holder for something?


thanks ,

Can't make much out on pic#1. Pic #2 looks like the die holder. #3 looks like the tap holder (see if the collets fit it, if so, that's the tap holder). Can't make out much from #4. #5 just seems like another shot of the die holder? Or is it another part that just looks similar?

I guess you could to this be elimination too. The drill chucks are obvious, set those aside. The tap holder is the one that accepts the collets, the die holder is the one that accepts the die adapters. Set those aside. The live center should be obvious too, set that aside. The only thing left over should be the reamer holder. I guess the question after that is, "how do I use it". Maybe someone smarter than me will able to help you there once you figure out which one it is ;)
