Understanding the Tailstock on a Lathe
The tailstock is a spindle that supports the workpiece at the end of the lathe, opposite the headstock. It is typically mounted on a swivel, allowing the workpiece to be rotated and positioned as needed. The tailstock is used to support long, thin workpieces, such as tubes or rods, and can also be used to help position and secure the workpiece during turning operations.
