I recently came across a Central Machinery Lathe/Mill/Drill Combo (t5980) at a price I couldn't pass up. It is missing a few parts however, and I was hoping to get a jump start on getting the parts in before tearing the thing down and doing a good once over.
Basically missing the Tailstock arbor and nut, and the handwheel assembly for the compound slide. I unfortunately don't have another lathe that I can make the parts on at the moment or I'd just attempt to make them myself.
Any thoughts on who to contact first for part on the machine? I know a few different companies rebadged it (i.e. Klutch) Alternately, if someone has one of these and a mini lathe, are the tailstock arbors close enough that I could fettle a replacement from the Mini-lathe site to work?
Thanks in advance.
