Walker Turner L1152 Lathe Parts
Jim Engel
>Have been working on restoring this lathe,
and have run into a parts problem.
There are supposed to be a pair of "split rings"
that ride in the 5/32 wide, 3/32 deep slot on
the spindle, on the outboard side, between the
outboard ball bearings and the bearing flange.
On my machine these rings are missing.
How can I replace them ?
Are they standard items, or am I going to have
to try and get them made ?
Are they likely steel, or brass ?
As always, any help greatly appreciated.
