Hendey lathe info wanted

I think you got yourself a True Beauty there......I Even like the Green color!

I am interested in knowing what exactly is the purpose of that "Hook" on the cross slide face?

I have the same question... honestly, I have no idea...

The Hendey operators manual calls that hook a 'thread stop for cross feed'...

IDK...

It came with a Chinese QCTP (bxa) and 5 bxa toolholders, and there were 5 Aloris toolholders (cxa), but no cxa tool post...?

Also in the box of 'stuff' were 7 solid carbide Kennametal boring bars... from 3/8 inch to 1 inch diameter... what does a 1 inch solid carbide boring bar cost?

Looks like you've got a great platform, from which you can "build up" as it were..
 
For threading:

Ok, I understand, I think the rod has been replaced with a short piece of threaded rod on mine... I'll have to see what I can do about that...

It might just be threaded into its "Not needed" position!
