Re: Your shop- Post a photo or three here! John-Looks like you are well set up. I notice the Clausing. I had a 12" where I used to work and developed a ram tailstock that takes abot 30 sec. to mount and is more versatile than the usual ones. With a bed stop turret and tailstock turret I could set up for drilling,tapping,spotfacing,countersinking, or whatever. Also since the screw is still functional, could make minor corrections and lock them in. If you are interested in building one send me your email address and I will send a pix offline with a description. Keith Williams
