Replacing my Clausing 100 mk3 cross slide screw. Was going to try turning a new cross slide screw but did not have a follower.

Tom McNett at Clausing said the crossslide screw no longer available. Decided to retro the 4800 series cross slide screw part# Q-352 on my lathe. Ordered the Q-352 from Clausing for $189. There was a 2 to 3 week lead time. Received the screw which also include the nut and gear.

Replacing my 100 mk3 crossslide with a crossslide from a Clausing 200 lathe. It is the same casting as the 4800 but does not have the recess milled for the taper attachment or chip guard. Have already rough milled a 0.750 x 0.125” recess.

Need to know the following:

1. Recess width

2. Recess depth

3. Distance between two screw holes

4. Distance between screw hole and edge of recess

5. Assume holes are 1/4 UNC threads

Appreciate any information,

Bob G.

Well I reached out to Tom McNett and he came through with two drawings. The 4800/6300 cross slide part# is DL-458 and the cross slide shield# Q-560.

I see the Q-560 in the parts diagram but not sure how it fits in. Will make one from the drawing see how it goes.

Please also put the two drawings into the Clausing folder in Downloads so that the next guy/gal who needs them can find them. See names of what';s already there for examples of how to name the files.

There are instructions for navigating and using Downloads near the top of the list of Site Fora in:

Will do Robert.

Also, when you put the two drawings into the Clausing Lathe Drawings folder in Downloads, put the URL for this thread into Additional Information URL. The correct syntax for the Version # is YYYY-MM-DD. You may use the then current date or the date of the start of your first post in this thread. In the description field, you can put something like how to modify part # so and so to something else for use in (machine model #). replacing the words that I used with the actual part/drawing numbers,

The reason for doing it this way is that anyone with access to Downloads can easily find the drawings (at least if they bothered to read the Downloads use instructions) but a year or 5 from now. they would have to be very lucky to stumble across this part of this thread.
