I am trying to rehab a couple very used Vicmarc VL100 lathes. Unfortunately, the cast iron that accepted the circlip keeping the quill in the tailstock has broken free and the tailstocks are now useless. I have communicated with Vic and Marco at Vicmarc. I can retrofit the VL150 quill to the VL100 tailstock but that's a large purchase from across the pond. If a wonderful AAW member has a VL100 not being used, a good working tailstock on parted out VL100 or a VL150 quill assembly, please let me know! I would be very appreciative. Attached are some photos of my current issue with the tailstock just for reference and understanding what I am trying to hunt down. DM here or email cutthroatwoodworks@gmail.com
Many thanks!
