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 4224B lathes.
