Ron is correct and that is a link directly to his/HogWinslow website. He also sells through ebay. I have purchased a replacement plate from him for one of my restorations of a Model 10 along with purchasing other parts from him. Anyone needing the bronze bushing/bearings for a Model 10 Speed Changer he is the person to get them from.
As for repairing the cracked insert do remember that they are only supported from the ends so any repair must support the location of the repair. Fortunately for you it is only cracked on the one side.
Russ,
Thanks, again, for all of your assistance!
Joe

I have a table insert if you are interested in not repairing your broken one. Let me know and I will dig it out and send a couple of pictures.

Wouldnt the heat from brazing or welding warp it ? Harbor freight has aluminum welding rods that you use with a torch ?

Hobbyman2,
I actually have a MAPP/Oxygen torch.
I will probably give it a try.
Thanks!

Yes, the damage circled below was done when I was seven-hole punching stacks of paper to fill my Day Planner with non-proprietary paper stock.
Thanks, again!

If I were doing that, I'd lay a wide board on the table to place the paper on. Then adjust the quill to just drill into the board about 1/8°. that way it cuts through to paper, but stops short of the table.

I have to question if that is a crack. The line I see appears to be too straight to be a crack.
The image below more clearly shows the nature of the crack.

Also, the machining marks don't match up on the two pieces. It appears that those were never one piece.
The machining marks were made on two different occasions.
