I went to lathes.co.uk and viewed the 1954 catalog.? The tailstock in the catalog photos looks the same as the one that I have. The catalog also shows a clamping screw on the carriage, but different

Happy to hear Mert is doing well. He was such a wealth of great advice. Best wishes to him. Dick

I think you are correct. I do believe it was Mert and in the photos I have, it appears to be well done. The vertical milling column appears to provide added support.Dick
