I have a 9" Junior manf 1918. I need to find a new takeup nut. I see them on Ebay, and some say "for Southbend 9 or 10k". But they don't specify if they are referring to a 9" Jr or Workshop and since the JR is less common, I assume they mean a 9" workshop lathe. I know that the 9" Junior shares some parts with the heavy 10 (10L), some with the light 10 (10K), and not sure about any overlap with the 9" Workshop lathe. I can't seem to keep it all straight. Does anyone know if the take-up nut for a 9" Junior from 1918 is the same nut as any other model? What are the diameter and thread pitches for each? I measure my spindle at the takeup nut threads to be 1.125" and appears to be 20 tpi. While I am asking specifically about the takeup nut here, it would also be useful to know what other parts are interchangeable with my lathe if anyone knows. Thanks.
