Anyone know where I might find parts for this cross-slide. I need one cross-slide handcrank and 2 of the micrometer dials seen with the crank that is shown.
The main problem is I don't know the make. the knurled knob goes on the bare post with a collar and the crank/collar are missing from where the knurled knob is.

any chance you have a bigger lathe and could make your own ? otherwise it may be an effort in frutility ? just sayin. . . it seems that most of the members are hobby machinist making tools for their tools. at least it seems that way. . .

Hi, no bigger lathe I'm afraid. Thanks.
Evenually I might get to where I coud make it myself but certainly not now.

Hi Bill,

Depends on the cost I guess. Being retired on a fixed income has its drawbacks.
