All:

I need some measurements from various lathes -- if you could report:

Make and model of your lathe

Delta 12" gap-bed lathe, model #46-546
Spindle - 1" x 8 tpi
Dimension 1 - 13/16"
Dimension 2 - none (threaded all the way to spindle nut)

Delta Midi lathe. model #46-250
Spindle - 1" x 8 tpi
Dimension 1 - 1"
Dimension 2 - 3/16"

Spindle size and thread pitch (i.e. 1 1/4 x 8)

Dimensions 1 and 2 from the photo --

it would be most helpful. The photo is of a much used Stubby so I have
that information.

Thanks in advance to those responding.
