I have read and researched this site and others looking for parts for old Craftsman lathe

Model # 149.23870

I need two parts.

1. cup center #273.3

2. cup center point #273.31

I have found that these are no longer available.

If anyone has this lathe I would be interisted in getting the measurments from these parts so I can have them duplicated by a local machine shop.

Thanks

Bill

In many cases the parts are centers are genric, but there are several diffent standards and sizes.

I would ask over in some of the woodworking forums that have turning sections.

Here are a couple.

They can probably give you 3rd party sources.
