Gentlemen,

I am looking for a tailstock to match my Troyke 10" CNC rotary table. Ideally, I would buy one of these: http://www.cnc1.com/images/customer-...ccessories.pdf but, someone somewhere must have one they would like to part with for less than full retail.

My criteria are:
  • Have a morse taper (I don't care which size)
  • Non-adjustable (it's a personal thing...)
  • Exactly 7" center height
  • Keys for quick table alignment
  • The MT can't hang out by a mile like so many Dr. Seuss contraptions.


Troyke makes an excellent tailstock of course, as does Hardinge, Haas, Tsdukoma, and a few others I'm probably not even aware of. There is one (absolutely perfect) tailstock for my purposes on ebay right now, but it has a center height of 6.5". Call me fussy, but I don't want a tailstock that I have to shim and measure, and tighten, and measure again, and tighten some more, then... oh damn - it's out of alignment, start over...

Thank you for reading this post.
