Description

Here is the ultimate alternative to wrestling with a heavy tailstock when you need it out of the way. With the Powermatic Tailstock Swing Away, you just gently slide your tailstock onto the swing away, lock it down, unlock the swing away, and gently ease your tailstock out of the way, with a small fraction of the force needed to lift it the old fashioned way. This robust swing away is designed to fit Powermatic 3520, 3520A, 3520B, 3520C, and 2020 lathes. NOTE: Tailstock Swing Away cannot be mounted to the end of a bed extension.

    • Not great and not horrible....
It was easy to install, just two bolts. I bolted it up snug and then backed off a turn on each bolt and then brought the tailstock back so that the ways guide and the big washer were half on the lathe and half on the swing-away and tightened the tailstock and the washer and ways guide tightened up and brought both pieces into alignment then tightened up both mounting bolts. The fit up is OK, once the swing-away is back in line with the bed, there is a slight difference in height on one side and the tailstock hits the bed and has to be lifted up some to clear. Tried adjusting a few times and I guess its just going to be like that. Also, the swing-away is very short compared to the length of the tailstock and about half of the tailstock hangs off with no support. Doesn't seem to be a problem and I'm sure its not a big deal, but I would have added the extra length and would have made the spring a bit beefier and more tension to aid in swinging back up. Its pretty easy to pivot back into place, but the whole idea was to make lifting the tailstock easier, so might as well make it even easier if going this far. Hard to say if its worth $300. I guess if your back went out lifting it off the floor, the $300 would seem like a small price vs a chiropractor. Not overjoyed with it, but all in all I guess it was worth getting. I do a lot of hollowing and need the room to work, so in time I'm sure I'll appreciate the ease this provides. ... show more

    • How did I ever turn bowls without this?
No more bumping tool handles (or my elbow) when turning bowls. A little bit of a pain to line up and install, but well worth the effort. It is kind of heavy for one person, so a helper is a good idea when installing. Not only does it allow the tailstock to swing away, but since it adds several inches to the lathe bed, often just moving the tailstock the extra few inches is enough to allow tool handle clearance when turning bowls. One caveat - if the back of your lathe is too close to a wall, the swing away function will be impeded, but that should be pretty obvious from the description. ... show more

    • Mostly a good idea.
Back issues made this seem like a great idea. I had been turning on my clubs Robust and full in love with the Robust Tilt Away. Powermatic's is a swing away. I frequently slide the head stock down the bed and turn form the end. the swing away does not completely swing out of the way. I have been banging my knee frequently. Currently using a bungy cord to pull it further away. I really hate the knob that secures the unit in the up position. I really would have preferred a cam so that it tightens in 1/4 or 1/2 turn. ... show more

    • Great Investment
Always reluctant to buy "expensive" add-ons worried whether or not I will get the use I paid for. But this was well worth the purchase. I do a lot of hollowing and bowls--was having to remove the very heavy tail stock completely off the bed to get safe access to the end work. Then it was a struggle putting it back by a single person. I'm definitely getting my money's worth for something that is not difficult to use! ... show more

    • Works great on my 3520b.
It works great on my 3520b. When I received it I could not turn the black knob for loosing up the swing away. Tried penetrating lubricant etc etc. Had a couple 20 something guys try it with no luck. Happened to have a plumber at the house working a couple of days later. He was able to break it free with his "plumbers grip muscles". Once that was taken care of and got the thing correctly aligned, it works really great and I'm very happy with it. ... show more

    • Makes working at the lathe all day much more enjoyable ...
Makes working at the lathe all day much more enjoyable, not having to lift the heavy tailstock off and on the lathe. Wish I had bought one long ago! Quality merchandise. One minor detail, I wish they had made it about 3 inches or so longer. Other than that, performs as it should!
