I am looking for parts for this lathe, mainly for the tailstock. I've
called Clausing, they said that they don't have anything for the old
wood lathes anymore.

Would anyone know who might have them, or what maybe Atlas / Clausing
did with whatever inventory they might have had when they quit selling
the parts? Any help appreciated. Barring all that, I guess I'll part
the lathe out to people like me, looking for parts...

Mainly I need the Ram, the bearing, and the "handle" parts.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, you've got a bit of an uphill battle on your hands. The
first thing usually lost on a lathe is the tailstock, so there are a
lot more tailstockless lathes out there than latheless tailstocks.

Maybe they can help

I'll try that group, but right now, it's looking like another lathe
for the scrap heap. I hate that too. Everything today is throw
away!!

I've got one of those lathes. Because of this, I watch ebay for these
lathes and every so often one will be for sale. Hope you find one.
