pretty garbled, looks same as what Pete found.

Some of those draw bars actually come out the bottom


??? Don't see how that would ever work.


Keep in mind that they lift to tighten and many have a fairly big
tool knob retaining gizmo on the end of them. So in many
machines..they ONLY come out the bottom. That knob on the end of the
draw bar often times ...unscrews.
The Moog/Visimetrics only come out the bottom as do a number of
others.

Does this mean anything to you? Mine is a splined power drawbar and it
surely must have a bearing in there because it rotates with almost no
friction. My old series II bridgeport had this.
