I want to get a replacement banjo for my 3520 and was looking at Oneway. but im thinking the banjo for the 1640 is the right one. Its the same hight as the one for the original 3520..
So looking for information on the overall length of the 1640 banjo, and if all myt 3520 fitted toolrests will fit?
Any advice and/or information is very welcome.
Rasmus - send a PM to Jack Mincey as I know he owns a Oneway 1640. Pretty sure he uses Powermatic 3520s at his school - so should be able to help you out with info.
still hunting info. Any one with a 1640 Lathe might be able to help me. need lenght overall and height overall and from top of banjo to lockingscrew. and if anyone out there have the same stuff on the 20" banjo i would be gratefull

Rasmus,
PM Bernie Weishapl he has one on his Nova and I am sure he will help you. If I had one I would be more than glad to help you out.

Hi, I had to delete some messages from my PM box a few weeks ago and yours was deleted by accident. Glad you bumped it back to the forum. I just measured my banjo on my 1640. It is 18" long the same as the outboard banjo so that it can be used for a 24" swing on the outboard. The locking nut is just a touch over 4 1/2" off the bed with an overall height of 5 3/4". The 1" hole bottoms out at around 4 3/8" from the top of the banjo. I use both the PM and the 1640 like the banjo of the 1640 better. It is lighter in weight so that it is easier to move around, but locks up more secure than the PM. The tool post is locked up much more secure on the OneWay than is the PM's tool post.
Good Luck,
Jack
Bob Hamilton is the one to ask. He is the one that got me onto it. He has had one on his DVR XP for a while now. I will say they lock down and stay put for sure. I would say the banjo for the 2016 or 2036 would fit your lathe.
Thank you Jack !! just the information i was looking for :) now i can get my 2 post toolrest project on the road. i just have to get the Lathebuilder to make me the kind of toolrest im looking for :( but he i sloooooow.. than you again..
