Cheap 60 degree live tailstock center - help!

[karlkuehn]

Hey, just bought a Jet mini, but I need a 60 degree live tailstock center. The one that came with it is most definitely not.

Anyone have any good leads on where I can get a good one cheap?

Thanks in advance!

Little Machine Shop is a favourite of many

Also check PSI...but I have a Little Machine Shop one and it's great!

I just posted the same question yesterday. Little Machine Shop has them at a good price but they are on backorder.

Crap. Just ordered the #2 short from little machine shop. Is that the one that's backordered?! heh...be just my luck. Good thing I bought a bottle stopper chuck, so I can play in the interim.

Stupid backorder. heh

Milpaul, When you get the grizzly hooked up to your mandrel make sure there is not any side play. The one that I have does and it makes it hard to get a round pen on that end.

Just checked the little machineshops site and the dead centers are on back order, the live centers and there are 3 of them are not back ordered.

The one you want from LMS if you have a #2 Morse taper is sku #1189.

Anybody know what "sku" stands for?? I see it used by a lot of retailers; but never knew what it really meant.

 

[Ewolfe]

"SKU" stands for "stock keeping unit"
