Recently I acquired (saved) an ancient machine that needs some attention.
Does anyone have a parts diagram or manual to reference ?
Its a W.F & J. Barnes No 13 33" between centers ,converted over to Electric L232 US PAT Sept 21 1880 Stamped on bed,May 6 1902 on the Carriage.
I spent a week scraping and wire brushing and removed 5 layers of paint and repainted it. Its looking decent now except for the broken toolrest and the lack of tooling.
What taper was used or can be used on the Headstock and Tailstock ?
The Compound Cross slide is broken at the upper dovetail I have someone trying to make a new one. The cross slide screw is bent and the nut is broken that drives the toolrest over the carriage.
I will try to get some Pics today.
Any one have any clue? I know parts for this are virtually impossible to find
