This chain comes from a variable speed drill press. Its job was to move the speed indicator as the variable speed was adjusted. Unfortunately, it was damaged and is now too short. What is it called and where can I find something like that?
thanks
No link to pic...
But I'm going to guess one of these three.
I'm pretty sure we're not going to be able to help without a picture of the chain or at least a good description of it.
Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! This is it!
Which brand of drill press? Rockwell? Clausing?
Figure out which one it is..and call Leigh at MarMachine, Costa Mesa, California, , he may have some carcasses

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure
- and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.

The nice thing about little chains like that is that you can make extensions from pieces of similar diameter steel or stainless wire and a pair of needle nosed pliers + some patience. Start with a length, bend the U shape, then thread it through the existing chain. Now roll the ends. Rinse, repeat. Good needle nosed pliers are necessary, but you probably have some Kleins there, don't you? Use some with toothed tips.
Your new chain doesn't necessarily have to be exactly alike, either. Free-floating chain can be any style. It's only if it rubs on a guide that it has to be a certain shape.
