Looking into what goes into adding a taper attachment onto a 72' 10ee square dial. I don't need a taper attachment since my other lathe has one, but would like to add one to this machine. I'm not in a rush, and quite patient for parts to come up.
Aside from sourcing all the parts, and making sure the years are compatible. Are there any specific components that needed to be machined, like the saddle or crosslide? or are they already prepped from factory and ready to accept the taper attachment? I have found the parts manual, pictures of the taper attachment and some videos, but its hard to just go off pictures.
BTW, if anyone has one or a parts machine that has one please send me a pm.
