Afternoon guys.
I am after some advice. I have been restoring my Mellor lathe and have come across a major problem .the cross slide screw and nut are totally wore out. It's a 5/8 5tpi left hand square thread form . I am looking in to having a new screw and nut made. Is it a task one of you guys could make. Or if I take it to a machine shop is it something that can be done.
