Please forgive my ignorance, I am just a hobby machinist, not a professional so I do not know a lot of the names or proper nomenclature for what I am talking about.
I just got a sidney lathe, I havent even gotten it powered up yet but I do know I am missing one of the half nuts on the carriage.(not sure what it runs just yet, will figure that out tomorrow and take a few pictures also.)
Also looking for new brass wear plates for the carriage, where it rides on the bed. i figured since I have it apart to paint might as well replace some wear items. Oh and the wiper seals or leathers for the carriage too.
Last question for now, where can I get a keyed shaft that is 88" long? everything I am finding is only 72 inches maximum. I need 3/4 od with a 3/16 keyway. idiots who loaded it up just slung chains around it.
one last thing just popped into my head. I am in need of a tool post holder like a dorian or what not. would prefer used.
