    Needed: Shoptask Tailstock

    I purchased a 1720 some months ago. Being ignorant, I didn't realize that it did not have a tailstock on it.
    If anyone has a tailstock available I'd like to buy it. There was some talk in the past of people upgrading to newer tailstocks and that some older ones may be available.
    If anyone has anything available I'd love to hear from you.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    call the seller

    Give him a call. He should happy to give it to you. It is useless to him. If not JT should be happy to sell you one. He is a good guy to work with at Cnc Milling Machine, Metal Lathe Mill Drill, 3 In 1 Machine .


    All the best

    seller doesn't have it

    He apparently bought it at auction as is. Was hoping someone around here might have one or know of one.
    Not sure JT would want to sell to me.

    Why not- something wrong with your money?

    Any one with a tailstock is unlikely to give it up.

    JT is in business to make money. If you are serious about buying he is serious about selling.

    Ask him for a price.

    I have a 2012 machine with Mach 3 loaded which I am just learning how to use. Has anyone installed limit/home switches or do you use soft limits/soft home entered into Mach 3?
