Finding lathe parts

[Chawbeef]

Hello all. I am interested in where I can find parts for my Atlas 10-F. I need 2 gears for the reversing feed assembly. The idler gear (9-47) and the left side reverse gear (9-48A) are toast. Any help is appreciated, thanks......................Daniel

Try to match them up with off the shelf bevel gears from a company like Boston gear. Even if you have to modify them, it might be easier. Otherwise, Ebay is a good source of used parts.

3D printing ? Find similar model and modify it for your needs, then print from tough and strong resin. Photopolimeric printers are very precise and modern resins are strong.

There is a guy in Michigan that has a lot of Atlas stuff. His website lists newly made, aluminum, 9-48B gears for USD $110:

New Atlas / Craftsman OEM 9-48B Gear for Reverser Assembly - BM Parts Tech

The website says he is away until November 15. You might check with him if he can also supply the gears you need.

Another option is Clausing Corporation who ended up owning the Atlas lathe business. Their Service Department can supply certain parts. I bought a cross-feed nut from them some years ago. Check regarding shipping, however. I didn't and the courier cost exceeded the charge for the part!

Have you been watching ebay? In the past it seemed like there was always someone parting out an Altlas something or other.

Ebay is where I got all my atlas parts but that was 16 years ago. There used to be tons of them on ebay not sure if that is still the case or not.
