Hi
First post after introducing myself in the new members section.
I'm looking for a little help identifying a dividing head I recently purchased. It has no identifying markings on it, I've run just about every image search I can looking for something similar, but come up empty.
Key points are:
Universal (if direct spiral cut drive removed)
<Edit:>40:1 ratio
4" centre height
Tangs in the bottom fit the Bridgeport table like a glove
Drives for direct or indexed spiral cutting
Angle locks are on the top facing horizontal, not at the rear like most Victorias
Handles are metal
Index plate lock is internal, not on the outside of the plate
It was an ebay "that looks worth a punt" affair, and I'm really pleased with it. However, it's missing the gears for helical cutting, and I'd like to know a little more about it and possibly see if I can find a manual somewhere.
Any clues would be most welcome! It doesn't look too dissimilar to some Cincinnati models, but I can't find a direct match. Just knowing the manufacturer would be a huge help.
Many thanks if you can help!
