My lathe has an L1 taper mounting system. This backplate came with the machine. Looks to me like is some type of dog plate for turning between centers?
Does anyone know how a center mounts in this set up? It may become clear once I get my spanner wrench and am able to take things apart. But right now I don't see how.
I used LeBlonds at the local CC that had L spindles. Mounting a center in the spindle nose was no different than most any other lathe. Spindle has a taper that takes the appropiate size center or commonly a reducer with a smaller center.
