![]() I made a stand for a Myford ML7 which is a 7" (USA measure) lathe and almost as light as your Atlas. But I think that you could improve on the rigidity of the mount to the bed of the lathe and this is very important with a light lathe like your Atlas. The lathe stand that you show has a lot of good points and looks great. Any ideas or information would be appreciatedĬouldn't get pictures to load but here are links to the pictures from the hobart forum: ![]() I was thinking of using 2"x2" or 2"x3" 3/16" or 1/4" wall tubing think this would be rigid enough using one of the materials list above that the bed would remain from twisting? if not I would appreciate any suggestions on what material to use.Īlso I am trying to think of a way to mount the counter shaft and the motor with out adding much depth to the to the stand. Would like to try and keep the cost on the low side. I don't have any of that hanging around so I am wondering what I can use for the frame. The stand In the pictures was built from 4"圆" 1/4" wall tubing. Picked up a 6" atlas the other day and I am wanting to build a bench for it since the table the came with it takes up to much room in the garage so I'm looking for something with a smaller foot print.
