Preston,
Don't pay $25 a pop. Do it yourself. This is a job well within a beginners
skills, espesh since quite a few co-enthusiasts (incl. myself) would be
glad to assist. If you'd like to try, send .gif or .jpeg files and dimensions.
Even WOODEN handles can be made to put this puppy back into pleasant duty.

The lathe has been out of service for several years and I am just getting
it set back up for use.? I bought the lathe new from Sears around
1968.? It is model 101.214.? Some years later, when Atlas discontinued
this machine, they had a clearance sale where parts & accessories were
discounted about 50%.? At that time I picked up a milling attachment
along with a few related parts/cutters.?Over
the years of non-use and several home moves, a couple of hand knobs were
broken off (cross slide hand knob and the compound slide knob).? I
have contacted Clausen and they want about $25 each for these knobs which
is about twice what they should be.? Anyone have a source for these
knobs??Preston PhilyawDeltaville
