Lathe Sine Bar on an Old Clausing Lathe

- In this video I show how you can use the lathe sine bar from Tangent Engineering on an older style lathe with a cast compound by making an adapter plate. This should work on any lathe that does not have a square, flat compound, including South Bend, Atlas, Craftsman, Logan, Myford and of course Clausing.

For some time now, I'm thinking to maybe buy a microscope too. I think it can be very useful.
Good idea to make an adaptor plate for the sine bar. Nice job.
Nicely done.
This is a very cool project and I enjoyed following along, thanks
Hi, keep em rolling in
new subscriber here, at 7:10 , I thought your 1/10,000 indicator was broken......great video here....cheers from an old guy in Florida....Paul
Yeah I thought so at first too... Thanks for subscribing, I subbed to your channel too.
We certainly agree on Precision Mathews. I have the 833-T mill and love it and the response of Matt at Quality Machines. I also have the Microscope. Money well spent.

Mick I have one of the Old Clausing 100's also. I replaced the bushings in the Countershaft with ball bearings so I can get higher RPM's. My next move is to change the single phase motor to a 3 phase with a VFD so I can vary the RPM's. i would really be interested in a walkaround video of the one you have with the headstock open and a demonstration of how you go from Back Gear to Direct drive. I run mine in back gear all the time because it is dang near impossible to get the Bull gear to lock with the method they designer for it. I have had my headstock apart and found nothing that should keep it from locking into direct drive it just will not lock and stay locked. This little lathe was given to me by my brother and he has since passed so it is really special to me. Thanks for bringing us along. I assume you are going to make a video using the "Vice Mate" I have the 4" sine plate but have not bought the vice mate yet.
Hi Terry! I'll see what I can do about doing a walk through of the headstock. I've only ever put mine in back gear twice, just to make sure I understood how to do it.
I suggest "tenon".
My compound has a permanent toolpost bolt, so your solution wouldn't work for me, but I do like how yours works.
Yeah possibly a tenon. Is there anything else you could reference off of? What kind of lathe is it?
@@MicksWorkshop My lathe is an old Emco, an Austrian design.
I am considering making my own sine bar (to metric dimensions, and not for sale) with a clearance hole drilled to accommodate the toolpost bolt.
👍🙂
Protuberance?
Is it called a "boss" in this instance?
That's what I was thinking, a boss. Thanks!
