Hi, Have joined the UKW community after following the excellent Harrison L5 Lathe overhaul project by Sideways and various other contributors. Just moved up from A Southend 9 inch to the Harrison and am looking for some missing L5 parts, particularly the two 32 tooth idler gears and their shaft, that operate the feed screw reverse mechanism. Any help very welcome. Cheers.

Welcome
The L5 is a great lathe, had one a few years back, which I restored.
Tell us what you make and what you would like to do.
Always interested !
