Dalton restoration parts and questions


 

Is their anyone on this group who has ...dare I say it..."parts
machines".

I'm looking for a few bits and pieces to complete my lot 5.

1)Brass plates for thread chart,(need not be a factory item if one
of you knows someone who may have reproduced the info onto their own
plate) mabye a vintage distributors tag.(to fill the holes drilled
into the swing door.)

2)The top of the compound slide (tool mounting base). Mine has been
crashed a "couple times" by someone in the last eighty years or
so:).It has a screw holding one edge of tool base slot and is
missing a big chunk from the opposite sides edge.(in the "dove tail"
sliding section)

Did Dalton paint the raised lettering on their castings? I've read
references to some of the members about it still being there on some
of their finds, but have yet to see it reproduced on some of the
nice restorations on the site.

......To Dennis; See what your nice pictures you forwarded to me has
now caused? Thanks for a wonderful way to pass the winter doldrums,
I'm almost finished with my "tune up" on the old girl, Just in time
for sprin, when I'll be able to start on the Hendey Norton
Universal.
