It’s called: Glacier Gray, looks more like a light blue to me but it kind of depends on how the light hits it. It’s a fine metallic. I’d say it’s probably not too far off from Chryslers early B5 Blue or Ice Blue if you’re familiar with that.

Here’s a couple pics of the paint. Looks good overall but there’s a few blems here and there. One piece didn’t get paint on the face where it should have, and another piece fell to the floor when I went to pick up the tailstock because he had everything piled on top of the bed. The gearbox cover...

I thought I’d revive this thread. Here at work, we have a LOT of large wrenches and they’re all just piled in the drawers. We need some type of organization. I was thinking about having a carpenter make a bunch of angled Dado cuts in some wood to keep them arranged. Either that or ask for...

Cut rims off of pans.

I have two Hardinge HLV-H Lathes. I’m rebuilding one right now and I don’t have power to the other one yet. I had a Smithy, and a Hardinge Chucker, I sold both of those and they partially funded the new-to-me Hardinge lathes.

I’ve had to make several tools and things to take the lathe apart. The smaller dia. Piece of aluminum goes in the end of the spindle on the headstock end to assist in removal of the Spindle Drive Gear. The pointed part of The puller goes into the threaded hole and then the jaws go on the back...

One pic didn’t work right and that’s because it was a screen shot/close-up.

My solution worked fine, and thanks for all the responses. I ended up using standard grade washers and it worked just fine. I couldn’t find anyone to tig it for me so I just spot welded kind of per se’ with a stick. The first washer just burnt away more or less because I had the heat too high...

Lilredex, to answer your question, no. I’ll post up some pics in a few min. but i’ll also have these over on my Hardinge HLV-H rebuild thread.

I would, but I don’t have a working lathe at the moment, that’s what I’m working on.

I’ll use the thickest washer I can but the clearance is only 1/8th of an inch if that.

I need to pull a pulley off of a shaft that has minimal clearance. Which grade washers should I use for this? I’m going to have them Tig welded, I just need to know which ones to use. I know Grade 8 is the strongest but probably more brittle, so I don’t know if the welding process would mess...

Forgot the pictures

I made a Spindle Nut Wrench to remove the spindle nut. The ring is a piece if DOM, that’s Drawn over Mandrel. I cut it off a bigger piece I had, milled flat, since I don’t have a working lathe at the moment, drilled two holes the right size for the pin holes in the nut, then pressed in a gage...

The parts can be sold on ebay or wherever.

Tore the gear box down today, still have The idler and bearings to pull out yet but it’s almost ready for paint.

When I get my surface grinder set up I might be able to re-grind the jaws that are on there now, but for now I’d like to have another set.

I also need a back plate for the same Chuck for a threaded nose on my HLV-H the threads are 2&3/16ths 10

I cleaned this Buck Chuck I’ve had laying around for a while to go on the HLV-H. If anyone has an extra set of jaws laying around for a 2063R please pm me.

I’ve got an SJ 18 I’m willing to sell, if anyone is interested pm me.
