Anyone here have one available for sale, or know where I might find one ?? ?? ?? The factory legs that came with my 1960 model are a pair of cast "A" shapes fitted under the head stock and tail stock. The top of the "A" measures 8" front to back and 7 1/2" right to left. There was no bracing between the two frames before I added a tool board mounted on angle irons between the two. The original set up man mounted 1/2" plates on between the top of the "A" and the chip pan, the one under head stock extends to the rear to support the jack shaft/motor assembly while the one under the tail stock serves simply as a spacer. These plates may or may not have been factory supplied. It should be a rather simple project to weld up a suitable pair of frames from plate and angle. Gerry :-)} London, Canada |
