I've updated the price. This was a spur of the moment decision and I forgot that I sold my engine lathe, milling machine and all the tools and tooling that went with them.

Did you make that tailstock yourself? I haven’t seen one of those adapted for the cue smith. (Not to derail your thread, looks like a nice setup)
 
I have not stopped. It does not work on low height machines so I do not allow it to be ordered in the shopping cart without talking to me. I set it up to align with the Deluxe in every direction.
Chris are you saying that the current Deluxe Lathe is settup at a different height from recent years
 
I'm only asking because i have headstocks of yours i gained second hand . I have no idea if they were the height large bore deluxe I use them everyday. someday I'll need parts etc Will i have to totally retool and change everything i have Using your headstocks?
 
I'm pretty these are the only two sizes, the one on the left being same height as a normal taig lathe headstock with a bigger bore that both Chris and MidAmerica sell variations of and the one on the right, the higher one, being the one that Chris sells on his Deluxe model.
