I feel it is the best lathe I have...- moonlight machine

Bridgeport Series I 2Jhead power drawbar extension for Right Angle Adapter use - ideas?
It sucks but to use a right angle head on a BP you need to remove the power drawbar and replace the draw bar with one that has a long hex. I don't use my right angle head much anymore because it's a PITA .- moonlight machine
