Just got it back. A fellow I've gotten to know over the last year has the same lathe as mine. He is restoring his. It had the taper attachment but the clamp was missing. So he used my clamp and copied it. Kind of a labor of love.
He made it out of mild steel.
You've got to admire a man who would go to such lengths to make such a beautiful copy.
I think once he gets the correct nuts/washers on top and it is painted it will.
easily pass as an original part.
How bout a round of applause for a true craftsman.
