Been messing around with my little Atlas lathe lately. Anyone know of a good reference site that deals with them, and a good source of parts (that don't cost an arm and a leg)? It was made, I believe, before Craftsman added their name to them. Model 101.
An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it.

Scribd has a manual download but you have to pay to get it. Loks generic to their lathes:

Is yours belt or gears?
It runs off a separate motor, with a v-belt. The gears are some type of softer metal. I'm guessing either aluminum or magnesium.
Forgemonkey, I'll look for the other numbers. IIRC, the tag was beat up, so I hope the other numbers are readable.
