Yeah, I priced a down feed micrometer dial at $360.00. Made one on the Southbend.
On the other hand, on some parts they could not provide, they sent me drawings so I could make or have made. That was the first and only time any American manufacturer offered such a service.
I did get a set of drawings for a special tool to properly set up the ring and pinion in a Triumph Spitfire from the manufacturer that made special tools for British Layland.....for free, shipped Air Mail. I DID send them a ‘Thank You’ letter.
