Alex from AMH_joinery in the UK is selling a PP mitre right now.
He posts here on vintage machinery if you want to contact him . Instagram would be faster.
It needs some work . Very rare piece. Do we have any PP owners here looking for a mitre ?

I did some work on the Mitres today . I cut drilled and added the 1 1/4 x 3/8 flat bar to take the flip stop for the front Mitre. Ive been wanting to do it for ages but these things usually wait until I need to use it. I have a job and needed to cut 6 table rails and 6 stretches with a 85 degree angle or 5 degree of the 90 at each end. I could have just cut them one at a time on the drop saw or the PK but thought this was a good chance to fit the imperial flat bar I bought ages ago for this repair. And the drop saw doesn't have a good stop for exact lengths which is what is so easy about a flip stop. With the flip stop and bar I was cutting three at a time stacked together all at exactly the same length.
I also made a hand spanner from Oak because those Wadkin star knobs are not possible to tighten sufficiently by hand . I was using a shifter on them for some time but needed something that is a little better and lives with the saw. A brass one would be nice to do If there was such a thing as spare time but Ill see how well this timber one works out first.
