I will gladly pay that price for an original in color, but if somebody just copied it in B/W at Staples, I will pass. I will be busy, trying to pull together and sifting through my tooling to see what I have that will work on this unit. I know that I don't have a single MT4 accesory for the tailstock, so some centers and a drill chuck, will be on the wish list.

TT, If I had the room and the money to build that monster, I would. If you think it would fit in a USPS flat rate box, I'll ask to borrow it. I will look around for possible alternatives but I am stuck on the loading/unloading problem at this point.

But like Moon said, once I started seeing some of the specs, I started to get genuinely interested. I mean, a 22' swing is nothin' to sneeze at, and that 2' or 2-1/4' headstock bore can be downright handy. Better still, for those impressive specs, the machine really isn't all that big, physically. The bed is about 6-1/2' long from the headstock, so that means it's about a 5' center-to-center, and the whole thing is less than 9' long.

Seems to be a little quieter in reverse. The lathe has a very bad paint job on it and I will have to repaint it to get it looking the way I want. It looks like I can take off the 4 bolts that hold the trans in the base and pull the trans and motor together.

Power's sorta nearby, but the thing's about 5hp and 3phase, with the two input cables helpfully sheared off at the junction box. And right now, it's only about 12F out there.:) I'd love to have something with that capacity- especially without winding up with something 16 or 18 feet long- but I don't know if the guy'll come down to what it's worth (less than scrap, really, and scrap's cheap up here) and about the last thing I need is another massive project. On the third hand, I can't really be choosy up here.

I use the rapid traverse motor to ream small holes. If anyone else has one of these lathes I would be interested to hear from them. We have seven lathes here and the Graziano is a nicer machine than the English Harrisons and Colchesters we have. This Graziano must have been really expensive when it was new. It still is very accurate. Glad you don't hold a grudge about cheesy movies this nation has foisted on the world!

Collets are a great thing, but the variety of sizes, irregularities and tapers that I work with tends to make them more work than they are worth. I got the RPC (Cedarberg 50) yesterday and now I have to get a switch unit wired up to turn it on and off, I hope the guys at the electronics supply can point me in the right direction for the best choice.

It wasn't cheap, but was less expensive than the other movers I check with and they did a good job. Good luck and I know you're gonna love using that lathe. Ted, Here is a chuckle for you, I am almost 100% certain that this is the other lathe that you went to see (Santa Ana). Stan described the other lathe and the fact that it got shipped north over a year ago. He said that he had tried to get the buyer to go for the 60' because he felt it was the better machine, but the buyer insisted that he needed to stay with the shorter unit. Do you have a follow rest by any chance? He said the buyer got a bunch of tooling with the machine, I would like to copy one for myself.

As for cost-no-object - I am not so sure about that. I don't think they were particularly expensive lathes, but I have no figures to back that up. For example, my SAG 12 manual says the lathe is aimed particularly at vocational schools. (And the toolmaking trade school I attended had a SAG 12). Yet it is a most beautifully made piece of machinery, hardened and ground parts everywhere, when you take it apart it seems built at cost-no-object. There is one 'uncouth' thing on the SAG 12 and SAG 14.

I am buying a graziano Sag 12 Lathe. Can anyone help me to find a manual? Also it was wired 440v and I would like to run it on 22ov. It has a Siemens motor that shows 220/440 but no wiring change over on the cover likes most other motors. Does anyone have any sugestions, thanks, Russ Russ, Welcome to the forum. I see that Jim has offered a link to download the manual. If all else fails, I have one that could be copied if necessary.

Another handy item is a good 4-jaw chuck. Made mention of the different bearing housing on Stan's lathe. Since buying mine, I have noticed many other differences in these lathes based on age. Mine is identical to yours (except it's 40' instead of 60'), but I've noticed that earlier models have a different switch panel, different carriage, cross slide and compound and early Sag 180's even had different spindle speeds and speed selectors. There are probably a lot of other differences that I don't know about.

From reading this thread, it sounds like the 210 has the magnetic clutch-type gearbox, no doubt similar to that used on the SAG 12. A friend from Dallas who occasionally posts here just bought a Sag12 from Reliable.

Two editions aare included - a smaller earlier one and a fuller later - together with a detailed and well-illustrated Sales, Specification and Accessories Catalogue and a Schlesinger Test Chart.

And right now, it's only about 12F out there.:) I'd love to have something with that capacity- especially without winding up with something 16 or 18 feet long- but I don't know if the guy'll come down to what it's worth (less than scrap, really, and scrap's cheap up here) and about the last thing I need is another massive project. On the third hand, I can't really be choosy up here. Finding another machine with those specs basically ain't gonna happen. I have used Grazianos for years, having a SAG 12 of my own and a SAG 14 at work. These two models are beautifully made machines and a pleasure to use.

Thus the individual pieces do not need to 8 in wide - I would use 4x4's or 6x6's for the cross stack. Also, I lift the load high enough to back the trailer under it rather than vice-versa. If putting a large load on the back end of the trailer, back it under, then block the back of the trailer so the hitch ball does not have to support a lot of force upward (most likely you will need a jack to remove these blocks when finished loading).

Stan looks the same too You mentioned buying a smaller chuck. I have a 10' 3-jaw on mine as well, but find that I really enjoy using the collets and collet closer when working with smaller stock. You may consider collets as an alternative to buying a smaller chuck. Another handy item is a good 4-jaw chuck. Made mention of the different bearing housing on Stan's lathe.

Graziano Sag 14 Lathe Electrical Drawings

I took my carriage to bits for a look - what a beauty! Fine engineering throughout. The headstock has its own oil pump keeping the Gamet bearings happy, and the main speed change gearbox is seperate, it has its own oil pump too.

Graziano Sag 14 Manual

-Yeah, this is not a megadollar (megalira?:D ) lathe, or an end-all-be-all lathe like an all-the-bells-and-whistles 10EE or the like. But the more I read about it, the more I see that it's clearly a pretty high quality machine.

Only reason I even bothered to go look was that it was only about eight miles away and I needed to get out of the shop. It didn't look much better in person, and it turns out there's some nontrivial forklift damage to the sheetmetal (but just the sheetmetal) so I was figuring it's just a fun outing looking at old machine tools.

I use the rapid traverse motor to ream small holes. If anyone else has one of these lathes I would be interested to hear from them. We have seven lathes here and the Graziano is a nicer machine than the English Harrisons and Colchesters we have. This Graziano must have been really expensive when it was new.

I am willing to train myself in the full range of operating the machine correctly, so that when I am faced with the need of those various features, I won't harm my equipment. I get so much enjoyment out of being around large examples of precision engineering, that is why I feel like the luckiest SOB every day when I go to work. My way to make a living is as an engineering technician on 25mm, 76mm and 5' naval cannons. I get to work on them as a troubleshooter and inspector all day long and then get to work on firearms when I get home. We have one gent at work that will retire next year and he is the only one that does any of our machining tasks (he is also a tech). I hope to be able to carry the torch when he moves on. I will never match his skill level, but I want to be able to do the work he has done for 40 years, so that we can keep from farming the work out.

It's time for me to turn into a pumpkin. Mark, I kind of thought that you may have gotten the lathe from Stan. I did in fact buy mine from him.

Each 'speed' has its own magnetic clutch, and can't be tested without power. Central and eastern europe tomtom download torrents. If you can't try it under power, I would expect the worst!

A local seller has this sad-looking (but salvageable?) Graziano SAG 210 lathe: The black gunk on the ways is supposedly some kind of cosmoline-like substance (it's waxy/tarry) so the ways are allegedly still pretty good under it. Spindle turns freely, gears shift nicely (not under power, but the shifters move and 'clunk' like they're going into gear) but obviously this thing's a hefty project. Worst part is the cross-slide. The owner says he has the handwheel and screw and whatnot, but the toolpost and cross-slide casting are missing.

I ended up buying 4 new electric clutches and some new gears and shafts for the gear box from Italy. After all of this and I got the gear box going I ended up putting a CNC 15 HP spindle motor and drives in the machine. It is a wonderful lathe and I wonder if anyone could use the gear box and clutches. The clutches cost 2500 each from DMG but I found the OEM in Italy and they new manufactured them for me in about 4 months. I fixed the gear box for about 2500 dollars and it works fine. I use the machine for reaming deep holes so I put flux vector drives on both the main and the rapid traverse motor.

I have enjoyed this lathe for years but right now it is a very acurate boat anchor. Info on these appears thin on the ground and mostly relates to the 10hp lathe rather than the 7.5. This might be of some use in the future, saving a dummy build or two to work out spacer positions - moral of the story, don't pick up the output shaft by the end, with everything in place after a couple of months!!!!

There is a timer in the sytem that allows the motor to start and get up pressure. If it gets to be a problem, I think I would by-pass the switch and put a pressure gauge in the system, one that can be viewed from out side. Graziano told me the lower gearbox pressure should be 3-5 ATM. I guess this means 'Atmospheres', so 45-75 psi. Either that, or put in a switch with a lower psi setting. The Sag 14 uses a 'normal' gearbox with 'normal' clutch, no electrickery involved.

I just finally made the final leap for a mill when I upgrades from a Clausing to a 9x42 Bridgeport at the beginning of the year, so now I am itching to have a lathe of similar scale. I will let you know how tomorrow comes out. Thanks again Mark •. Well, I pulled the trigger and said I would take it. I was amazed at the world of difference between the Enco I have and the Graziano. Crawling around that machine, listening to it run and looking inside the gear box, I was blown away by the simplicity of operation. Everything was laid out in such a logical manner, the way it was assembled and the number of standard features, I realized that I have never been around a unit of this caliber.
