Atlas Craftsman Quick Change Rebuild Part 1 Crafted Channel

A guide through an experience of rebuilding a worn out Atlas/Craftsman quick change gearbox. When we are done, it will last twice as long as before. All these gearbox's from the various models are the same from an evaluation, tear-down and rebuild perspective. Most parts are interchangeable with only a few differences in shaft length and case mounting.

Join me as I craft my own home Knife and machine shop. My goal is to improve self sufficiency in all homesteading, survival and maker skills. You can do it also. I believe in getting my hands dirty and getting it done. I like Clausing, Craftsman, Atlas, South Bend and Logan equipment. Follow my journey as I learn what I know and what I don't know. We might even talk a little philosophy here and there.

Now, go and get your hands dirty! Make something.
