That is my thought too. I cannot think of any other way that could happen. The 2 teeth were damaged in this way and the other wear occurred because of it.
Bryan. Thanks for the pictures. That cast name is interesting. A bit confusing at first.
Thanks Bruce. I will give them a ring. Some more pictures would be great.
Pictures showing the type of stop system my little No. 1 had would be really good if anyone can help out.

Dean, my quill pinion is a bit ropey too. The guys who used it (it came from a place I worked) would let the handle go so the quill would slam back every time, which may have contributed. I vaguely recall trying to assemble it so the bad bit was out of the way - like at the very start and very end of the stroke or something. Anyway it feels ok. A missing tooth is a bit different, though in practice it may not matter. I guess you would get a little jump in the downfeed - just enough to break the chip.

A few pics of my Waldown (3M). Might help; might not.

So it looks like your stop has been broken off and there is meant to be a circlip on the shaft.

I really like those old machines.The school I left in 2008 had one and in was fully intact bar the "arc of shame " in the bed. The spindle slop was negligible after 40 years of use. It was n't the model with the feed but seemed to be a metalworking model as it had a fairly fast range of speed ( it lived in the woodworkers shop)
Because of the relatively small population it is really difficult to get ones hands on any sort of old iron up here.

Thanks Michael. That confirms the stop arrangement. A simple pin. Hopefully I can fix it. I don't have fine adjustment tho. Maybe I can incorporate this. I have not seen any identical to mine in all the pictures from Google.
I will take some measurements of the feed shaft today. I think it is one solid piece.
I need to replace the lock nut. Buy/make? Price one first I guess.

Hi Dean,

Yes, I saw that screw Stuart. I don't have anything on my drill tho. Just a solid piece.
The stop ring is on the left side. It flips over onto the feed handle hub next to it. The taper locks it to the handle, like the teeth on Michaels drill, last picture. That taper appears to be the only adjustment available.

What I am thinking is to incorporate a fine adjustment into the repair for the stop pin. Maybe mill a flat underneath to bolt on a plate with a bolt/lock nut in it for the stop.
