I am after the cross slide feed screw and nut for a Denford Viceroy 280S - which I believe are common to the TDS range. Ideally new, but good used would be fine. Does anyone have these parts or know where I could source them?
Many thanks,
John

There was a guy on ebay a while ago who was making nuts for various machines, I got one for my Boxford TUD.

Hi Pete, thanks I do recall seeing something on ebay.
Some 25 years ago I actually converted a colchester student cross slide nut and shaft to fit my viceroy and about 6 years
I had to turn up a new spindle as it had worn.
