[QUOTE="bigbuck, post: 388170, member: 18377"] Thanks Fitch. The pics speak a thousand words to me . How long is your lathe from the front of the 4jaw to the back of the spindle ? I didn't measure this one but if I remeber correctly the cincinnati looked a few inches longer than yours and that sounds like it's not a good thing . I will measure it next time and then I'll let you guys know what it is. I really like how you drilled out for the four bolts in the rear of the spindle . The lathe that i'm looking at either has a cover on the back that I would have to remove or I may not be able to drill it like that because I can only remeber about 1/4 to 3/8 of the spindle that was visible through the rear of the headstock. I want to thank you all again for replying to this thread I know their is a lot more gunsmiths on this site that could be but you fellas are trying to help someone that knows nothing at all about machine work and i'm pretty sure it's obvious to you but yall are still willing to help an ole hill billy like me :) Thanks, BigBuck [/QUOTE]
