WTD: Clausing 5900 Series Info
Looking for some info on the later model 5900 series lathes. (blue base and
gray lathe) Specifically the 5904. What is the internal spindle taper? This one has the hydraulic variable speed mechanism. I understand there are parts prone to wear and expensive damage if not caught. What should one look for? Also would like to know the length of the 5C drawbar should I happen across one. Any other thoughts appreciated. If anyone runs across a clunker that has some of its accessories, I'd be interested in a Steady Rest, 5C collet closer and Follower rest. I have heard of some adapting a Southbend 13" Steady fairly easily to them. Thanks Marty |
