I tried searching, but does anyone know of a thread which describes disassembly/reassembly of the Compound and Cross Slide on a LeBlond Dual Drive with the Taper attachment?
Details on making a new Cross-feed lead screw and replacement nut, especially with dimensions, would be a bonus.
I can buy a generic bronze ACME nut and lead screw material for a small fraction of what LeBlonde wants.
I'm also missing the sliding bed bracket and the drawbar for the taper attachment, but those should be pretty easy to make on the mill.
Thanks in advance,
David
