Hi;
I have two 9 inch SB lathes, one has 1 inch plate to raise the head stock,and one to raise the compound.
I need a 1& 1/2 inch tail stock Base plate to make it center on the spindle.
Did SB make one that size? I don't want to make one.
Any one know where I might get one?
 
IIRC SB did make a riser set for the 9"...I doubt of you found a set they would be willing to separate it.

If you have a mill it would be much easier than you might think to make a a sandwich plate between the top and bottom half of the castings,essentially a really thick shim with a couple features.

The original SB I think was a plate that went on the bottom,that would be much harder to make.

Nor what you were looking for but it at least bumps you back to the top.:)
