Anyone got a spare Blade Height Winder WCA390
Anyone got one of these laying around or a spare they don't need, trying to find one as adjusting the blade is becoming a royal PITA

i checked that a week ago and it didnt work, checked again today and still doesnt work. i guess they pulled it from their site
I guess plan b would be to make my own and sell them online since they are so hard to find

Do you want the full kit or just a replacement winder handle?

Well if you can make the frame you can get the specialised bits here:
Tool Spares Online. Blade Height Winder
or from Dennis Leverett who is often cheaper for postage:

I note the whole kit is still available from some UK shops, but it may cost an arm and two legs to post it.

I have a workcentre 2000 so i would need the full cit but not a replacement tray.
looking at the schematics i can probably build the uframe out of aluminium extrusion, the tricky bit would be the winder assembly but rather than a leadscrew i can probably use some threaded rod. trickiest lart would probably be drilling and tapping the end of the rod so i can screw in a bolt with an allen key head so i can access it from the top of the saw
once im back in the office i can 3d print all of the other bits
would make a fun project, but it would be a hell of a lot easier if i had one that i could measure and copy rather than doing it all by trial and error, Ha!

Height Winder - Update
Good afternoon all
I realised I had already taken some photos and dimensions of the height winder assembly. I've attached the document for anyone who needs them and happy to take more pictures/measurements if needed.
All the best
