Harrison 140 Project

Quite a few Harrison manuals here, pick your model or download all of them as there is some cross-over between models:

Machines are listed in alphabetical order, so Harrison is near bottom of page.

 

4.5HP will be overkill for the lathe, you’re even more likely to damage something if you have a crash.
The three phase motor your lathe has is 1.5HP or 3HP depending what speed you have it set on.

 

Now I have a mill I can start thinking about making this steady I swapped with @badabec fit this lathe.

I need to measure the angle of the V and decide whether the steady should sit on both V’s or just one.

 

Scrap that the V is 90 so easy enough to do in the mill

 

Looking good, that's one less thing I'm not tripping over any more. Now to get rid of the Acvoake vice

 

Fit onto the rear v to enable the saddle to move past the steady.

 

The steady is too wide to let the saddle pass in any case.

 

You'll find that a serious hinderance in use. You need to reduce the width.
