I have been working on restoring the above-mentioned machine. It came to me without the downfeed stop collar. The purpose of this split stop collar is to trip the power downfeed kickout lever and stop the downfeed. It can be positioned up and down the quill, or removed to get an extra bit of quill travel.
I had inquired here about the split collar, and a gentleman was nice enough to send me his to measure up. I had a friend draw it up in CAD and 3D print the patterns. I received my parts today, cast in C95400 bronze. There was a mixup in ordering and they made 2 sets of split collars. (I had inquired about pricing for a second set but never ordered it but they made it anyway.)
I have the spare bronze split stop collar set available if anyone else needs one.
I also have the pattern available. As 3D printed, it was green but after ramming now it's silver colored.
Here is a pic:
The bronze castings need to be machined still, of course.
If anyone needs either the bronze parts or the patterns, please let me know.
