Thread: In search of 260 tailstock!

Good morning Rick. A quick enquiry to Mal at Australian Metalworking Hobbyist wouldn't go astray.
All the best with your new 260. Mark

Also am looking for original motor and the countershaft pully that the motor drives, someone machined one of the flanges off the larger pulley??!!

One of the Norton box selector levers is also broken, I was going to weld it with the MIG, I've had a lot of success with MIG and a high gas setting on the past, as anyone done this one a hercus casting before?

Thanks!
