Milling Machine Spares

Mar 15, 2007 6 Replies

Hi All, Before I set to to make one, does anyone know if I can buy a replacement longitudinal feed screw nut for a Marlow Mill? It's 1" O/D, 1.625" long with square thread .75" X 10 TPI.



Any help appreciated,



Alan.

those dimensions sound odd. I suspect an error in the length.

oooops. read the post properly, Shackles. As you were.

Anyone got the kit to make these kinds of things? I could do with a crossfeed nut for the colchester lathe.

Mind, I could probably convert that to the same spec as the newer ones, which have the nut split into 2 halves and a tapered wedge to push said nut apart and take out the play in the threads.

I could make that, I guess. But making just one sounds expensive.

I brought a tap to do early Colchesters
