These lathes were made by AA Engineering for Craftsman and I have heard them referred to as Dunlap lathes. The tail stock takes a modified 0MT. The Chuck can Several different threads with 1/2-20 being fairly common. Don't know much about these folks other than they have parts and a lot of info on your lathe.

Note : talk to Lathe City.com, watch EBay -- watch prices and descriptions ,ask
all of us lots of questions, get thin instruction book ($6 to 18 ) lots of advice
from me and many others. When you get the book , take it apart, it is simple.,
But take pictures and notes, anyway........BLJHB

f0und the gears i needed, not sure how to get the sleeve out of the broken gear other then just chip at it since its brittle.

on to search for a motor and motor Mount design

Make a simple gear puller, #10 screws in hub.

You can make a motor mount with plywood and hinges. It needs to be hinged to allow belt tension release when changing pulleys for changing spindle speeds.
The tailstock looks like a #1 or #2 Morse taper. If you remove the tailstock dead center you measure the taper size.
I would replace the V-belt with a link style belt.

#0 taper modified see. LC ...... BLJHB.

Did you ever get around to measuring the diameter of the large end of the tailstock ram taper?

 

[motofool33]

.345 the diameter of tailshaft. Tailstock bore is .500

0MT chuck adapter fits fine.

OK. If the large end of the taper is .345, that end is standard 0MT. The small end is a little larger than the book says but unlike the spindle, any 0MT taper will fit it and go in the proper distance.

Well decided to order a motor and motor mount i found on ebay to get this thing working.

But something else followed me home today.
