Hi, i have bought a burnerd L0 collet chuck, for my harrison 140, but it did not come with a chuck key.

Has anyone got any idea where i can get one?

I’m sure Pratt Burnerd would be pleased to sell you one.

There might be some on an auction site.

The last one I wanted, for a TOS chuck, didn’t really take so very long to make.

Have had quite a few harrisons, L5’s L5a’s L6’s, 140’s they were all stamped with a serial number on the bed, tailstock end. There is a list on lathes.co.uk which will tell you the year of production from the number.

I think he may have found the number (or given up looking) by now.

Haha, epic thread ressurection......never looked at the date

this is the one you need

They seem quite rare on ebay they tend to go for north of £50

not sure what burnard would want?

Ask NDIY to knock you one up in a spare minute

More than a spare minute but possibly not beyond your skills, either?

Supply the gent with some dimensions and I am sure he could make his own, if he has enough kit.

Me? I would think a rotary table, or spin indexer, and a slitting saw might be enough, followed by some filing? YMMV.

I assume that the OP never found his serial number.

I have a Harrison Graduate wood lathe which seems to have no number. The bed has a flaw and I have speculated that because of this it was not issued with a number and sold in the usual way (I bought this many years ago from a Harrison employee who may have acquired it cheaply on this account).
