Atlas Milling Machine Indexer?

Atlas Milling Machine Indexer. Anyone got one? I have what I suspect to be the tailstock for the indexer. It came with a bunch of stuff I got with a mill I bought a while back. I figure I can either wait for the rest of it to come down the path, or trade it off to someone that needs it.



Mostly, though, I'd like to get a positive ID on it.

What is the height of the tailstock center above the table?

I have one. The tailstock looks like an Atlas lathe tailstock. Post a picture, and I will be able to say yes or no.

Center height is bang on 3 inches.

I fired a couple pics into the dropbox under the name of "atlas_maybe_tailstock".

That's it. Missing the clamp.

Kevin Gallimore

The two halves of the clamp are there, in too much crusty grease to fall out. The clamp screw and the square nut were missing, as was the handwheel handle. No biggie in any case.

Anyone got an orphaned indexer that either needs a tailstock, or is never gonna get used and is expendable?

Willing to trade universally redeemable beer cupons if required!
