    Default Left hand Woodfast faceplate

    Good afternoon all,

    Hoping someone can point me in the direction of where I can obtain a faceplate with a Left Hand M30x3.5 thread for the outboard mount of my Woodfast lathe.

    I see that Hare and Forbes used to sell them, but they're discontinued. I've emailed Woodfast, tried ringing a few suppliers but no luck. I can have one machined but I imagine the cost will be significantly more than a ready made one. Size of the faceplate doesn't matter.

    Thanks all.

    Matt

    Try emailing Vicmarc, they use the same thread so might be something they have on hand or could make.

    I will give them a call, thank you. Certainly nothing on their website but you never know if you don’t ask

    Yep, called but no answer. Was going to try again but figured I’d ask here in the mean time.
