Need a little help in dating my new aquisition,a 1910 or later prcision 10in.I checked the tony lathes site and the pics they showw are a bit different than the lathe I have. On my lat5he the lead screw attaches with screws through the bed and not on the face of the bed on the tony lathe site.The other differance is his shows a thread dfial and the carriage lock on the top front of the cross slide. My lathe the lock is on the back of the slide and there is ni hole machined for a thread dial.So I am assuming my lathe is any early model before the advent of the thread dial.Does any one know about what year my lathe was made. Serial # 2592.Also one of the gears was broken and it appears to be the largest of all the change gears that came with the lathe.My bes guess is that the gear was 7and 5/8in diameter with about 100+ teeth. Any input would be greatly appreciated,
