Did you upgrade from a 510 to 520? Looking for an odd part.

Post by thedovetailjoint »

I'm looking for the little thumbscrews that lock the floating table tubes into the main and extension tubes. I just realized that these aren't on the 520, so I assume that someone who converted to a 520 from a 510 might still have these around. There were two generations of these; One that was around 1/2" diameter with cross-holes drilled through it for use with the Shopsmith 5/32" hex wrench. The later version is around 1" diameter with no cross holes. I'm looking for the larger ones.

Please toss me a private message. Thanks, Scott

P.S. This part is called a Jack Screw, and is part #145 (514440) in your 510 manual.
