HI All!

??? I've been making some parts lately and have had some luck selling them as well.? Enough to buy some new hop-ups for my 7x12 Cummings lathe :-)

?

My F/O/R switch is acting up, and I'm thinking that I'd rather have a rotary type switch instead of a toggle, like the one that's on the micromark 7x14... anyone make this swap??? I'll probably just wind up going with a stock replacement, unless the swap is easy?

?

I'm also thinking about a Tailstock cam lock kit.? I see LMS has them for $30...? Does the cam lock kit rally get the tailstock clamped down tight enough so it doesn't move?? will installing this kit throw off he alignment of the Tailstock?? My TS is perfectly aligned right now, I really dont' want to go through that trouble again of lining it back up... or worse I really don't want it to be thrown out of alignment higher or lower :-(

?

thanks!

? Mike B
