I have a 12.5X30 Traytop Cincilathe. It is in need of a few parts. A cross feed screw and nut. A dial for the tool feed. Sight glasses for the oil levels. Misc. springs and bolts. I have contacted Cincinnati Tool and their prices were incomprehencible. If anyone can help I would be greatful! Thanks. Ed.

Ed, here is a link that you might ask the same question. If nothing else there is a good classified. Good Luck, Dave

Ed, sounds like you need to buy another lathe to make these parts on. I did this same thing on a Cincinnati lathe that I had and it had about the same amount of slop in it when I got through as it did when I started. This lathe has a gear arrangement on the compound rest and you can't take all the slop out of it. The sight gages you can probably make out of plexiglass and cement them in. The dial will be hard to find, you'll probably have to buy a new one. L8R----Fred

Fred, thanks for your reply. The cross feed screw and nut that I have is so worn that it skips and stops functioning. Also, Cincinnati Tool wanted $1000.00 for the dial which is about 2.5" in dia. I don't think I'll buy a new one. They also wanted over $2000.00 for the screw and nut. Are there any other places to obtain parts? Thanks. Ed.

I would try some of the used equipment dealers such as Plaza Machinery Co., P.O. Box 14 Back River Road, Bethel, Vermont 05032, or Sobel Machinery, 82 Herbert Ave., Closter, N.J. 07624, 201-768-9645. I have ordered parts from both of these and have had good service. Thought South Bend's prices for replacement parts was high, but it sounds like Cincinnati has them beat by a mile.

Ed, you need to find the used machinery dealers that are online and see if they have a parts lathe that they will sell you parts from. Just email them with your needs and see if you get any response. If you don't get results there, find a friend that has a GOOD bench lathe with a follower rest and make the crossfeed shaft out of high carbon steel, even if you have to stub it. (Using the front half of the crossfeed shaft and stubbing on the new threaded part). The crossfeed nut can be made from a solid piece of brass or preferably bronze. You might have to buy the Acme tap to thread it with, but chase the threads in a lathe first and use the tap to finish them. The dial can be made from cold rolled steel and marked accordingly by dividing the number of threads per inch (of the shaft)into 1" and that will be the amount of divisions for one complete turn of the crossfeed dial. Not so for the compound rest because of the gear arrangement. If thats too complicated, a 1" dial indicator setup against the crossfeed slide can be used to mark it with. A dividing head would do the neatest and most accurate job. Usually the bedways were the first thing to go on the Cincinnati Traytop lathes, but by running it through all the gears as long as you don't hear a click-click-click in any of them (gear teeth chipped on the sliding cluster gear by cowboy operators). If you had to buy this gear, just deal for the company first so you won't have a heart attack and not be able to enjoy the lathe. Email me if you need any specifics on the project if you go that way, I'll try to coach you. L8R----Fred OH
