My quest for missing parts for my South Bend 13 inch single tumbler lathe has been pretty successful, BUT I haven't found the four brass parts that hold the carriage felts.

Any chance someone can trace one out and add a couple of dimensions for scale? They look like they have "ears" bent back to provide the gap for the proper grip of the felt. Can I possibly also get the proper gap dimension and the thickness of the brass?

With a little luck, I should be able to make up something suitable.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
