Tool post dimensions. Your input and information is needed!

[Phil Pascoe]

I thought it might be worthwhile to compile a list of post dimensions and any other useful information for use when hunting spares, different sizes or improvements.

Axminster AT1416VS takes a 1" stem (25.4 mm)

Axminster AT1628VS takes a 1" (25.4mm) stem 4.75" long (min)

Axminster AH-1218 and AH-1218 VS takes 16mm stem (according to manual).

Axminster AWSL takes 16mm stem ATM.

Axminster AWVSL 900 and AWVSL1000 takes 25mm stem ATM.

Axminster KWL (and probably other badged 37" single round bar Taiwanese lathes) 7/8" stem 2" long.

Axminster trade series precision Pro Lathe Takes 12.5mm stem ATM.

Axminster 1216VS 1" 4.75" long.

Myford ML8 3/4" stem

Nova DVRxp and 1624 - 44 1" stem. 8" long for the DVR, the Galaxi and the old 16 - 2448, and 5" long for the Comet.

Poolewood 28 - 40. 30mm diameter, 90mm - 95mm long - a bit longer wouldn't hurt. Shorter would handy as well - sometimes when working on very small stuff the rest has to be set too high in order to clear the bed bars.

The only one so far that can't be made from stock BMS is the 12.5mm one - and that could probably be made from 1/2" and taken down by hand (if the will was there )

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Please can anyone making additions and alterations make them in new posts rather than edits - I'll try to keep things accurate, and I'll miss edits or not know what's been edited. It would be good (not critical) to have the post lengths as well (maximum or minimum?) for the purpose of ascertaining interchangeability between makes. I suspect I've made a rod for my own back here.
Thanks, Phil.

Axminster AWVSL is 5/8"

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Has that one a different number to the 900 and 1000? I notice from Woodpig that they are 25mm ATM?

 

[katellwood]

Wadkin RS 1 1/8"

Dominion 1 1/4"

different lathe it is the VS model of the AWSL mini Lathe

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Keep 'em coming, people. If you know the length as well, even better - it'll help find which ones are interchangeable.

Mystro, 1 inch diameter. The maker's ones have a 4" long post, but this doesn't allow the rest to be used if the hole in the banjo coincides with the nearer bed bar. Mine are cut down to 3", which is still plenty long enough.

 

[SVB]

VB - 40mm

Vicmarc 300 - 30mm

[woodpig]

You need to edit the list Phil as there are two Record DML lathes the 305 and the 320.
Lincsflier says the DML320 is 1" but we don't know size what the 305 is. :wink:

Record Power DML320 1" diameter.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Thanks. There's little point in a list if it's not accurate - I'm trying, but obviously I can only use the info. given to me.

 

[Phil Pascoe]

Bump - keep 'em coming.
