Lathe Apron Hand Wheel

[Parm]

where can I get one of these?

I’ve looked on eBay, they are either aluminium with what looks like a very rough casting or “genuine Myford spare” that cost a small fortune.

I need 100 mm diameter with a 1/2 bore, although that’s not an issue as I can make the hole myself

Cheers Parm

I'd just use a cheap plastic one

I’ve got my mojo back with the lathe, want to get metal wheels and put it back together properly, might even get a nice paint job while I’m at it

It’s for the main apron slide, don’t think I need a graduated handwheek?

Paint the middle and polish the outside they'll look proper.
