Searchng for Handwheels

Chuck, I have a cast iron crank rough casting here that you can have for the price of the postage to get it to you. I originally thought that I had a use for it, but that project has changed somewhat and I no longer need it.
Dimensions are as follows:
Hub OD: 1.650"
Crank throw (hub center to handle center): 4.750"
Handle OD: 1.000"
It does not have a hole of any kind in the hub.

It will just fit in a USPS small flat rate box, which ships for $6.80 right to your mailbox in three days.

If you are interested in it, let me know and it's yours. I will be out of town for the next two or three days, so be patient if I do not respond right away.

Hi Terry,
Thanks for the offer but I am going to pass on it. I have decided to take a chance and order the 8" cast iron handwheel from Griz to use as my crank handle.

Bob, You got the wrong Squaw Valley. I live about 45 miles east of Fresno 10 miles south of the 180 which goes to Kings Canyon National Park. Elevation 1850 feet. As we like to say we are above the fog and below the snow. So I am not going to MN anytime soon.

Darkzero, Thanks for the link. That is exactly what I have to do. I read in another thread, forget which forum, where the poster had the same machine as I have and tried to use the plastic handwheels from Griz. They did not have enough material behind the spokes to make the cuts. The pictures in Griz's catalog looks like there is enough material. To be on the safe side I emailed Griz about both their plastic and cast iron handles asking for the dimensions. I got a polite but very curt reply that they didn't have the time to determine whether their handwheels would fit on a competitor's machine and that there would be a restocking fee. I emailed them back again asking just for the measurements and got another curt reply that just restated what was in their catalog. I was going to buy a fair amount of stuff from Griz but if this is any indication of their customer service I will spend my $$$ elsewhere. I was going to use their 8" cast iron handwheel for the crank and a 6" plastic for the Y axis. What did you do with your old plastic handwheels?

Daryl, Funny you should ask. My mill/drill came with a Walter 16" rotary table. It would not even fit on the table and was so heavy, well over 200 lbs, I could barely move it. No way could I pick it up. I just sold it to a local machine shop. The guy they had come get it picked it up like it was no big deal. I am shopping around for a 6" rotary table among other things.

No problem, Chuck. Just thought I would offer since it looked like it might work for you.
 
I think I have both of those that were from my Enco RF45 mill if you still need them. Long story but I ended up with extra's and have since sold the mill.

Let me know.
 
Hi Dan,
Yes I still need the hand wheels. I'll send you a PM.
