[Lathe] Q about Craftsman 101/Atlas 618 milling cutter holder (draw bar)

[pdentrem]

Huh??? I'm just selling the drawbar and tapered collet holder, not the lathe. I sure hope it's worth big money. thx jim

Yes just the drawbar. Remember the Atlas 10" is drawbar and spindle adapter. Your 6" drawbar is not the same design.

I sold just the 10" drawbar part number 750 with adapter and a few collets for 250.

What exactly do you mean it doesn't fit? You have a #2 Taper make sure the collet is a #2 taper....Did you mean it doesn't go all the way in? It doesnt need to, the draw bar ...draws it tight not all the way in........I made a holder and drawbar from scratch....I am pretty sure I could make that work on my 618....This has been a hard thread to understand ...
