I was looking for a D1-4 mount faceplate for my lathe. Being a "cheap screw" the sources that I found were all expensive. I contacted Harbor Freight as several of their lathes use a D1-4 mount. I just received this unit and have not yet mounted it, but it appears to be a substantial casting and well made.
===== info from Harbor Freight =========== F3001 FACE PLATE (HEAD STOCK) 28.80 Here is the part#, description, and price plus 3.95 freight charge. ..............
This is a special order item and you will need to contact tech service direct. I dealt mainly with:
