Hi Robonthemoor, that is a Vertex rotary table shown. Dividing discs are available from RDG/ Chronos and other sellers.

Hi Trevor I thought it was an soba so thanks for putting me right, I need the turning handle can one buy them as a part? Do you think MSC or Chronos for best suppling the parts.

Thanks for the table Neil I’ve printed it off.

Would be surprised if you could not obtain Division Plates from Warco, Chester, Chronos, RDG or someone like them. The handle and "fingers" should come as part of the Division Plate package.

It might be worth measuring the diameter, and across flats, sizes, to check with your prospective supplier, that the package that you buy will fit your table, rather than ordering and then finding that the handle and plates do not match.

It may be worth turning up a short pin (So that the handle can pass over it) to put in a hole behind the "fingers" so that they are not moved inadvertently during indexing.

Thought that I had already posted this, obviously not.

The "birds head" insignia, and the printed info shown, are the same as that on the manual for my Vertex HV6.

Buying the Division Plates will include a Handle and the "fingers". If you just want Handle with vernier graduations, you will need to buy that as a separate item.

Just don't believe all the data in the chart at the back of the book! It has been pointed out that it contains errors
