I believe its called the cross slide, could also be called a top slide, tool post or any combination of these according to eBay searches. I've done very little research in to a replacement as I'm not 100% sure on what it is actually called.
The outcome of tossing it in to the bucket destined for rust removal treatment has resulted in the image attached, and leaves me between a rock and a hard place. It's from a Drummond Roundbed, of unknown vintage as the data plate has long since been removed by a previous owner.
I've got a couple of sellers on eBay lined up with some questions about a couple of items they're selling and if the measurements are the same or similar. But, would anyone know if there are any direct replacements out there on the open market without the need to purchase a complete Roundbed lathe for this part?
Many thanks,
Steve
