Thanks to the generosity of one of our forum members, I now have a Precision Machine 4 3/4"
screw center faceplate without the 1 1/4" X 8TPI adaptor necessary to use it on my lathe.

The photo shows this adaptor mounted to the faceplate.....this is an appeal for the adaptor only,
but if you have the faceplate as well......we can discuss both.


If you have one of these adaptors, with or without a faceplate for it, and are not using it, let me
know....thank you very much. If you have both, I'll buy them both.....either way is ok. :)

Seems to me you could take such an adapter or its design specs to a machine shop and have one made? They appear to be fairly simple, enough for most any decently equipped machinist to be able to duplicate. Just a thought.

No thanks, I want the original.
