Hello all! Newbie to the hobby and forum
I’m looking for some help from those with knowledge on tools. When I bought my Atlas lathe, it came with a Holt portable keyseater. I searched for information about it and didn’t find any! So let’s see if some wonderful folks can help me fill in the blanks on this and answer a few questions if possible?
For starters, is this missing a lot of parts to make it functional? I get the basic idea behind the keyseater purpose, but I’m guessing that it’s missing more than I would want to find and or build to make it function??? But without knowing what more it needs to function properly, I’m finding it difficult to keep or scrape it.
Thank you for any and all that provide input on helping me with understanding of this tool in advance.
