Best bet is to look locally. It is too difficult to package for shipment, for the price that one could get. It CAN be shipped by UPS, but only if their...
I just got a replacement spindle for my Homier 7x12. It has only 3 holes. I recall seeing a template somewhere to print out, cut out and locate the other 3...

Thanks, Jim, Mike (and Tom) I thought it was on the LMS site, and had checked there, but could not find it. Hadn't occurred to me to check the actual chuck...

Hello, This email message is a notification to let you know that a file has been uploaded to the Files area of the mlathemods group. File :...
The revised and original materials for the CamLok conversion to the 7x10 tailstock are now up in the files as listed below. Now I do not have pictures of the...
James, I looked through the new pdf, and I don't follow all there is contained there. Will you add some words of explanation at some point, or should I post...
Richard I do not have my data drive at home with me right now as I had a slightly senior moments when leaving work last night and got everything on my list to ...
Oh, the bushing is screwed in, I did'nt see that. Could it be lose? Is the original file pdf needed alongside this one? Block3 is drilled the same diameter as...
Richard I should have senior moments like your gearbox and speed reducer setups and that double tumbler atlas box you sent me a picture of. When I get your age...
Richard I got the new handle for the compound on the 9x20 finished and the compound milled down for 1/2" tooling so now that machine is running the way I want ...
What's type 2 and type 3? You refereed before to camlock2 and camlock3. Is 3 the one mounted with the axis at 90 deg, axis parallel lathe bed? So to...
Silly me - you don't need a large diameter cutter to flatten the surface for what I think is camlock2, you can of course just mill a rectanglular area with a...
Richard The main point in the redesigned bushing setup is you no longer have to make a flat spot for a nut anymore. The bushing now mounts to the inside with...
Then I got some wires crossed... I thought there was no need to machine the flat spot, and I thought you said there was. It makes sense now! I reviewed the...
Richard The mod is because of all the gripes about getting the motor lined up reliably. I have fought it every time I have had the motor out and so has ...
But how does this mod help? Maybe my motor is different. I have a Homier, to align it, I back out and lock with locknuts 2 bolts that come down on top of the...
Richard I have never had hands on or good pictures of the motor mounting on the Homier that was not made by Seig so I can not respond correctly on that ...
On your model, do you just use the front bolts??? That would be terrible indeed! I imagine if I had one of these it'd be totally obvious where the improvement...
JWE, Are any of these camlocks the one that does not require drilling through the tailstock? Charlie B [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Charlie I like the secure feeling of the cam and bushing solidly supported in the upper casting which requires a 7/8 inch hole for the bushing and tapped holes...
Charlie, I have accomplished something with similar effect, without much work and no making holes in the tailstock. Get a 1/2" compression spring about an inch...
Not so sure about cheaper... I remember looking for a stubyy 17mm wrench and was shocked at the price Sears wanted... Plus it still operates in what I often...
Richard, i actually used a cut-off flea market box end at first. But I decided that it was inelligent enough to warrant a new Sears Chrome plated, lifetime...
Oh, I guess I didn't say that clearly. You are absolutely right in what you say. What I meant to say, the lathe bed on my Homier (old style) is not uniform...
