That would be a big help no rush really It has been out of action for three months now due to house renovation.

Thank you.

Dave

YOU have it Thanks from top it would look like "top hat " my screw would not go to top of the "hat" so mine would need to be flat. But that is the problem sorted I will get on and get one made this weekend if wifey has no more jobs for me!!!

Thanks very much for that

Dave

Hello Alan.

I am not good at discribing things!

The tool post fit on cross slide that in turn fits to the main slide to turn the diameter of the part ..the handle to turn part is at the front of this slide.

The handle lead screw that goes though and has brass nut that give movment to the main cutting slide.

I need photo of the back end where the nut is fastened to the saddle

We may get there!! but at least it's warmer here than down my workshop!

Thanks for your efforts.

Dave

Thanks . need photo of the bracket that the lead screw would fit into at the back of the main slide .

It will have (I think) two holes to bolt it onto the slide and one larger hole that the lead screw would go through with thrust baearing and nut on that end...as said (I THINK!)

Thanks

My bed was sticking so I took my col 1800 (square one) to bits.

I have misslaid (lost!!!) a jib for taper turning attachment, but want it off anyway so no big deal..

My problem is I could do with photo of the screw bracket for the rear of slide with taking the TT off I have not got the bracket now so need to make one.

If any one has square 1800 student could you take photo of this bracket please and email [email protected] Thanks

I plan to swage some lead wire.

If I have ONE hole say 6mm the lead would have only 6mm to go through so I assume if I have say 5 or six holes there would be less force needed to force the lead through the six holes? or am I wrong? would I need more force?

Well it is not that one! mine will be cross between two Gemini and clone

Thanks John

Most of the parts I are are for holding...barrel clamps and rails for scopes and some internal parts for triggers and cocking aids.

Non are made or could be modified to up the power above the legal limit.

Nice to know that some one picked up on my thread!

I will be building a .25 airgun that will be capable of over 150 ft/lbs but this is on my FAC so within the law.

Semi retired .

Did engineering from leaving school till 21 could not wait to get out! now I can not wait to get on the lathe!

Interested in making duplicating machine to carve wood....any help with this would be great.

I do some parts for air rifles and have managed to sell a few bits to pay for more tooling.

I have 45 ft ( note the proper measurement !! ) container full of stuff.
