Looking for a Gorton 1-22 Mastermil Riser Block. Circa - 1975 Gorton Mastermil brochure shows 6" to be a P/N 1228-1 "Raising Block", and 3" to be a P/N 1539-1 "Raising Block" (as if that's relevant). These are an interesting design - a rectangular cast iron block (about 8.5" wide x 22.25" long x 3" or 6" high) that goes between the ram and turret, instead of a circular riser that goes between the turret and base (like on a Bridgeport). I'd take either size for my machine, but would prefer the 6". I know these are pretty hard to find, so if anyone has any ideas for a work-around, I'd appreciate your recommendations. Thanks, Sound Research
