The door on Mitch’s lathe like all other Daltons is cast iron.? Not sure Mitch is still with this forum as I would have thought he would have chimed in on this series of post Gareth. ??The parts you show look quite good.? Do you need a new cross slide gib made I think you mentioned it was damaged.

I do have the cross slide it appears to be the same as Mitch's, its nice to have his as a reference. I attached a picture of various parts on a shelf, the cross slide is with them, I can get a better photo of it tomorrow though. Good to know that the compound can be fabricated, looking forward to getting it operational. Would the door on Mitch's lathe be cast Iron or cast aluminum?
