Vernon, I have most of the documentation for that lathe in PDF format. Email me offline and I'll send you all I have.

Really a long time ago. Looks like 11 years ago. I don't remember whether I saw that posting or not, but Dovebid does not seem to show by those URLs now.

The only one which I know was the table (made by Emco) which was part of the C5 mill (pretty much the same milling head and column as went on the back of the bed of the Compact-5?CNC lathe (and presumably the manual version, too.)

A quick search of eBay shows two of the milling columns and heads, one on a Compact-5 lathe, and one without any kind of table.

eBay auction # 391401826341 is the stand-alone, and the part on the right-hand end of the column in the first photo might be the one which fits on the back of the Compact-5 lathe bed, or it might be the one which fits on the back of the X-Y table of the C5 mill. No way to tell from the photo, but I can testify that the hole pattern which fits the back of the X-Y table does not match that on the back of the Compact-5/CNC lathe bed, so I could not play with using the Compact-5/CNC lathe as a CNC mill (unless of course I made a new mounting block to fit.)

And *this* one # 132306365029 is the Compact-5 manual lathe, with the milling column and head on the back of the lathe bed. Hmm ... lots of tape on the belt access door on the milling head. Normal height column (the other claimed to be extra-long) and a scary BIN price.

No examples of the head and column with the X-Y table, sorry.

Enjoy, DoN.
