My Craftsman 12" X 36" Barn Find

Welllll...... major league setback.... Anyone know where I can get an Atlas/Craftsman 10-1586? I was pushing the pin back in and it broke. Not a fan of cast welding, so I'd like to get another one. Clausing will sell me one for $354, but that is out of the question. HELP!!

For the price Clausing wants for that part you could purchase an entire QCGB on E*Bay to get that lever then strip it and sell the rest of the parts to get your money back. But as has been said: That casting can be brazed or electrically welded with nickel rod. A good TIG welder should be able to make it look like a new part!

I'd definitely get it Brazed or TIG Welded before I'd pay that much.
I'd try calling Clausing and tell them you'd pay $54 for it. ;)

Well, sorry it's been so long updating. Had a semi-bad eBay experience. The tach was DOA and I fought it tooth and nail trying to get it to work. I was refunded and bought another $10 tach but it took another month to get it in!! This one works fine. Here's some pics of the finished product. We restored the lathe at my store but have it set up and running in my home shop. Enjoy!

Here's a pic of how I mounted the pickup.

I put two white paint marker dots on each side of the magnet so I could tell if it moves...... it doesn't!

This final pic is of my reverse lockout. With the screw on chuck, I was afraid using the barrel switch that, in case of a serious situation that I needed to shut the lathe off in a hurry, I might go too far and actually reverse the lathe, which would spit the chuck off in no time flat!! (Been there, done that!!)

I'd enjoy/entertain any constructive criticism!! Thanks all!

Pics don't work for me either.

On another note: I had one of those $10 digital tachs that didn't work. It would power up and just display "0".

I flipped it over and discovered that the OpAmp had been either knocked off the board or was never there. one came out of the junk drawer and few secs later I had a working tach....
 
Joe, sorry to temporarily hi-jack your thread...

To those four of you who have reported not being able to see Joe's embedded photos - On the main navigation bar near top of screen, immediately to the right of the FORUMS tab, do you see a PHOTOS tab? If so, what happens when you click it? You should see the albums screen showing either gray squares with three small circles in a row, or the first photo in each album.
 
Robert,
It opens the photo library with 32 pages of photo's.
I don't want to have to look thru 32 pages to find them.
Any way to just put them in the thread?

I also get the no permissions error.
I can see albums with no trouble and the pictures in them.
Doesn't seem to be a way to search for a particular album.

Well, I dont have permission to see the pics either and my search of the photo files (by creation date or creator name) turned up nothing. :(
 
Joe,

The Photo viewing problem is that your album is set to PRIVATE. Specifically, the View By or Who Can View or whatever it's called is set to Owner. Go to your Album and see whether or not you can figure out how to change the setting. But I tried with my only album and couldn't figure out how to change anything in mine except the album title. So probably you are going to have to send a PM to one of the Admins, Nels is his User ID, and ask him to change the Who Can View from Owner to either Member or Everyone or whatever the appropriate description is.

If I could have figured out how to do my own, I would have logged in as you and fixed it just now. But I couldn't so I didn't.
 
I tried to change it to no avail. I'm sure it's something I've done, hell at 55 I've just managed to figure out how to tie my shoes.... I sent a message to Nels asking for help. I'm sure he can or at least point me in the right direction.
